Default Need some Canadian help...

Hi there all:

I have a 2009 350, and I got great deal on it. Unfortunately - no satellite. I did some extensive searches here (and what a great resource this site is!). I mentioned kit B6 783 00 78, and the other kits from http://www.billsden.org/fileadmin/me...stall_2006.pdf to the dealership.

They tell me those are "american" numbers not canadian, and I need to buy the kits myself in the states and they will install it, or to buy cartronics unit here: http://www.cartronics.com/MBNew.html...1&IntelliTop=1

And find someone to install it.

Any ideas - O wise SLK owners?

See? This is why I love Canada! Unfortunately (and I DO mean unfortunately) I live in Ottawa - home of the nutbar.

Do you like the cartronics unit?

Hi dlloyd.....

I installed Siruis in my Canadian 2005 SLK. That said, I actually bought my Sirius parts out of the U.S., cause it was a lot cheaper.

I can PM you all the part numbers if you like, and the contact I used in the U.S.

The only thing I did non-standard is I went with an antenna under the grill in the hood in the drivers side. Didn't want to drill a hole in my trunk lid, but otherwise stock.

It's actually fairly easy to install.

Cheers!

Dang

Hi Dang! Thanks, and I would appreciate it all, Unfortunately, I am new and cannot send PMs until I hit 15, and I am at 8 posts. I think you can PM me though.
