Keep original radio, CD changer (required) and upgrade to streaming audio on factory system.
If tired of the same old commercials on the radio or tracks in the CD changer; the BTA-MBCD
(formerly A2D-MBCD) is able to add your smartphone to the mix. The compatible 1994-99 Mercedes Benz must have a functioning 6-disc changer in trunk or hatch which remains connected and functional. (If vehicle does not have a functioning 6-disc changer; purchase our A2D-MBR instead).
Installation is a simple as removing the radio and connecting module behind the dash and after a short pairing session to Bluetooth device (e.g. Smartphone, iPad, tablet, kindle etc.), you are on your way to enjoying audio content including Apple music, Pandora, audio books, GPS guidance and more plus able to keep device charged via the built-in USB charger (5V/2A). When in the mood for CD’s simply press Pause/Play button on remote control. This plug-n-play solution leaves no wires or clutter on or around the dash and is the accessory you want if looking for Bluetooth streaming connectivity without compromising the factory system or altering the look and feel of dashboard components.
