Mr12Volt Mercedes-Benz CarPlay and Android Auto Interface for W221 S-Class and W216 CL-Class NTG 3.5 MOST Bus 2009 to 2012 Facelift
Part number: P2000-NTG35MM
Upgrade your Mercedes-Benz with a premium CarPlay retrofit and Android Auto retrofit that preserves factory audio quality. The Mr12Volt P2000-NTG35MM integrates directly with the MOST optical bus on COMAND NTG 3.5 systems, using the TV video input for true digital-to-digital high-end sound. No AUX downgrade, no third-party coding, no compromise. If your car has Harman Kardon or the factory high-end sound system, this is the Mercedes CarPlay upgrade you want.
We have installed this kit in-house and on customer cars. The integration, audio performance and reliability are excellent. Our customers love the seamless operation and factory-style look.
