Hi Guys,

I got a 1992 300E that I'm gonna put an aftermarket cd player in since radio/cassette doesnt work. There is no cd changer in trunk but i see a plug for one.I got the radio out, found some instructions online



I splice into wires of the car that went to the headunit. Now in the trunk, I see 3 boxes, think 2 are amps and the other one is a tuner? I'm not interested in any extra amps or anything. Just want decent sound, does not have to blow windows out. What do I do about theses? Just disconnect them? Leave them connected? Bypass them?

Also, I take it my power antenna is hooked up to the tuner in the trunk? Therefore I need to run an extention up to the aftermarket radio going into the dash? Is this correct? If so, whats the best place to snake it? How does the back seat come out?


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

btw, love this ride! my 1st MB!

Thanks,

Fish

There should be some red lever on the bottom side of the seat cusion. Look for them on the bottom left and right. If your cushion doesn't have levers, then you'll probably find 2 screws instead. Just unscrew the bolts and slide out the cushion. You might not be able to completely remove it if you have heated cushion.

As for the seatback, check for 3 screws on the bottom of the seatback, and remove them. Place your hands on the bottom of the seatback and exert force upwards. The seatback should slide out easily.

As for snaking locations, that's up to you. I hid my speaker wires behind the carpeted center tunnel, but you can fit them whereever you see fit.

Hi,

Thanks for the info.

Got power to the new radio last nite with antenna looped outside of car with extension. Ran out of time to continue. Just need to hook up speakers and route antenna.

Will look into seat tonite. Regarding trim strips at doors, how do these come up? I dont see any fasteners and dont want to break or bend them.

In the center, did you have to disconnect anything with the power seats to snake up the center?

Thanks, Fish

Thansk for the help. All hooked up and hearin tunes now!!!
