    Mercedes audio system confusion

    Hey I Need some help I have been looking for a new audio system for my mercedes but on crutchfield it claims that it will fit but on another website that sells the exact same model says it won't fit so I don't know which website to believe

    http://www.crutchfield.com/p_110VM92...-VM9216BT.html <----- says it will fit

    http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...%5BIgnore%5D=1 <----- says it won't

    Would someone know which website would be wrong thanks.

    if its a single din, fitment would be very easy. double din would require a lot more work.
    so it appears you're good to go

    Hey it's a single din ( if a din is the size of the accual unit )
    Have you come across any tutorials on installation on a w202 before just so I have somewhere to start
    Thanks

    Not for sure of your year or model of 202. Mine is a 96 c280. I was looking at a touch screen kinda along the lines your looking at. I decided against it seeing that once the screen is open it blocks my climate control system. Just something to keep in mind.

    Yeah the model Is a 98 C200 and I did realize that there would be blockage issues with certain controls but most of the time I have it on the same settings and don't really change it even if I did want to change it , just before I leave to drive somewhere I would change it to the desired settings before I tuned on the screen.
    Some people may change it often though but in my case it seems to be fine the whole time.
    I just hope one like this fits because it would be great to have this feature in my 202
