How to Install An Aftermarket Car Radio: 2001 Mercedes Benz SL500 

Keep in mind to disconnect the Negative from the battery so you don’t accidentally fry your radio. Good job on the new radio man!

nice video. Like the camera angle.

thanks for share it!

I have a 1998 Mercedes C230, The radio was busted, so I went to the junkyard and was able to find the exact radio, but it was off a 1994 vehicle, so to get the code I had to go all the way back to the junkyard which was 40 miles for me, and get the Vin number off the car in junkyard, But it works now and I’m very happy, I got this Mercedes for $250 and it is in very nice condition

Thank you for the video

THANKS MAN!

The amazon link is not working could you update or post up the model you installed

Hi would you know if this would work on a 2001 a CLK430 ran across your vid and was done well so off course a thumbs up was given also subscribed as well for future info on my new Benz well new to me hahaha 😂 thanks Tony. T

Right on, man.

You could send the old unit to “Becker Auto Sound “ in NY .They manufacture the stereo for Mercedes and they repair units and can add Bluetooth also in case you like the look of the old unit for the car . Just an idea 👍

Excellent video thanks

Please let us know the radio model and make because it’s no longer on Amazon maybe I can find it somewhere else on the web I really want this plug and play radio thank you brother

What the brand of the new radio/Bluetooth ? Thank you.

I have an 02 BENZ with the same stock radio, you think my steering volume controls would work with that aftermarket unit? Or they are connected with the telephone connector?

Did the radio go off when the key is shut off and come back on when you turned the key back on?

Drop a link to the radio and does it have rca Jack's in it

when you inserted the new player did it click into place? And if so, would you use the same Mercedes keys you showed to pull it back out?

Hi what type of key do I need to remove stereo. I couldn't find the link

What’s the exact name of the radio used my radio doesn’t even power on

Hey Mike, Did everything work after changing the radio? Power antenna, Sub woofer and door speakers?

what is the name of the radio? Links as you know sometime stop working.

@ MoJoGrip how do you like this plug and play unit?

Question did you not use a wire harness?

Hey can i buy that old head unit??? -matt

What is the name of the car stereo? the amazon kink is not working.

What’s the name of that Bluetooth radio?

Did you use the fiber optic wire

We're you planning on securing the mounting sleeve to the opening? Also, I can't believe for a second that an R129 happened to have the exact same working harness with the exact same pinout as your Amazon radio. There's some serious misrepresentation if some critical installation steps here.

You need to check the wires are in right place ie left front speaker and most importantly the 12v ignition supply you could burn your ecu out just because the plug fits don't mean the wires are right

Mercedes has no ignition live have to take from the cigarette lighter

I don't think that's an 01

Mojo send me your old unit I need it bad my LCD screen died

Bro what lmaooooo hell naaa my shi ant match up like that I had to get a 2 way adapter n all typa shi
