Chris,

I too have the Mercedes C-230 and am waiting to get my empeg installed. You mentioned a Panasonic adapter that may work with the Bose deck, which adapter is this and where can I find it? Also what site are you refering to for aftermarket Mercedes Parts? I've been looking everywhere for something like this, but have been unable to locate it. I've currently got an FM modulator on order for this install, but would much prefer the cd install option.

Where are you looking to have your's mounted? I'm looking to mount mine right under the factory deck in place of the little storage compartment.

Keep us all updated on the status of your search!

Thanks,
Matt
