Hi
just got my traffic pro and i love it. just unplug old mercedes stereo and plug in HK. no cutting needed.
but i got a few questions:

1. is it possible to adjust the backlight of the buttons. meaning when you turn headlights on at night the buttons of the stereo get lit but they seem too dim still?

2. Where can i get 2.0 version of the nav cds cheap? (i emailed the guy who had it for 20$ but he dont reply)

3. how much is the stereo suppose to stick out from the center dash. seems like old mercedes cassette radio was better flushed.

4. how do i get cover for the radio which would replace HK title with Mercedes benz. somebody did it on the board by swapping it from an original benz radio. But does the dealer sell the cover by itself?

thanks guys

Hey redc36

1. Im not sure if you can change the backlight on the buttons, I did notice they are pretty dim.

2. as for the 2.0 disk I have them and I will try to see if they are burnable, if they are I will gladly sell you a set for $20

3. it is not supposed to stick out too far, although I do think the factory stereo was a little better, did you make sure when you installed it you pushed it in until it clicked in place?

4. I think the guy who has the Mercedes logo faceplate got it at a dealer and paid like $100 for it

do your 2.0 disks have canada on them? i have a beta 2.0 disk that has canada but they have some bugs.
