Stig, was the steering wheel adapter required to allow the empeg in your car? I see a ~$500 one for my car, which I'd like to avoid.

Ouch! Mine was a hundred and some dollars, and no, it wasn't needed to get the Empeg installed, but it gave extra signals I needed for the Pioneer. Blaupunkt have a VW to ISO-interface (needed it for the antenna amplifier/adapter) with instructions on how to find the switched 12V in the dash . Don't your hopefully friendly neighbourhood Mercedes dealer have something similar?

Edit: I just checked the link you gave, and it looks like your car might use fiberoptic to transfer data, but it wasn't very clear which signals were fiber and which were electrical.
