Navigation Unit (OEM)

[Capt]

Has anyone here had any experience with the Mercedes Audio 30 navigation system? I have found a bunch of people selling them and thought it would be a great addition to my 2000 C280 Sport. Anyways some specific question I have regarding this system is; will it install in my car seamlessly or will there be some retrofitting involved? Secondly, is there North American (specifically Canada) Nav-CD's available for these systems?

Any help would be appreciated.

I have searched (prior to starting this thread) and found a partial answer to my first question, do you have anything else to add that can be helpful or are you one of those people who just goes around reminding everyone of the red button on the top of our screens?

Thanks in advance for any valuable information that you or anyone else can supply.

I hear its has a really good voice system (since the screen is so small.

I guess the point is I want to keep the stock Mercedes look and the least possible messing around to install it.

Does anyone know where to purchase the north american disk (even a starting point would be cool - tried ebay and ther doesn't seeem to be any NA CD's for this unit).

Capt, you can try by going to the dealership. They should have them.
