• I don't know if this is worthy or not of a DIY, but thought some members may find it useful that were in the same situation as me. I recently acquired an iPod touch which I wanted to integrate with my Audio 10. As I have found out through searching around there is no auxiliary input into the Audio 10 on the early w203's. I tried one of the FM transmitters which my brother gave to me, with no luck. When I could get it to pick up the sound quality was appalling at best. Anno 2070 offline.

After some research and looking around the solution that looked best for my requirement was an FM Modulator. This basically takes an audio input and modulates it down the aeirel into the stereo on one of the range of frequencies that you configure the modulator to use. I picked up a JVC modulator for approx. £15 from eBay. This is just a basic one, you can get 'all singing all dancing ones' that send the track name from your iPod to the head unit over RDS. Other items you will need are: • Shrink Wrap/insulation tape • Phono lead • Solder/Soldering Iron • 3.5mm Stereo Jack Panel Mount Connector • DIN > ISO aerial adaptor • ISO > DIN aerial adaptor • T20 Screwdriver / allen key • Flat blade screwdriver • Multi meter The unit will require a 12v switched feed, which I pulled from the cigar lighter. To remove the head unit and cigar lighter you will need to follow these guides: The loom that came with the modulator came with an inline fuse attached, I spliced this loom into the wiring on the cigar lighter then soldered and shrink wrapped it up.

You will need to build the loom to accept the audio input. I butchered an old stereo phono to phone lead. Then soldered and shrink wrapped it to a 3.5mm panel connector. You will need to decide where you want your aux in to be placed. I chose the compartment under the head unit. I ran the power loom that came with the modulator back up behind the head unit, and installed it there. The end of the factory aerial is ISO and the FM modulator takes in and out using a DIN connector so you will need a DIN > ISO and ISO > DIN adaptor.

Hey everyone, i searched the forums but couldn't find much about this, so i thought i'd post up. I have a 12 inch sub and amp that I want to put in my 2002 C240 using the factory headunit. I am going to check with a few local shops to see how much they would charge to install it. Would I need any adapters or any additional hardware to get this thing hooked up? One shop that I spoke with today said that Mercedes cars are wired up with fiber optics and it was going to cost over $350 just to install it. I think I read somewhere that only the higher end audio packages (bose?) or newer w203s use fiber optic wires.

Thanks Eric P.S. If I missed a thread about this, please pass the link on and delete this post. They tap it into the rear speakers and use a converter for the RCA to the amp+1 I have a 12' L7 with a hiphonics amp. They charged me 300 for the installation and it turned out fine. The only problem was that my license plate screws started to come out from teh bass hitting soo hard. I thought that was a good thing (kinda telling me that my sub is doing its job) but then i had to replace the screw.

I got this package as well that ran all the wires to the speakers but unfortunately i stopped there, for now! My stock speakers are really good but ive been looking forward to putting in some kicker speaks and tweets! Yes you can do it. I reccomend a EQ if your getting speakers too.
