In the current market, there are now many cheaply built replica units which look similar to ours but have extremely poor internals and parts such as thin flimsy metal frames and cheap plastics. These are simply low-grade, low-quality, cheaply built products which are flooding the market, many with even fake specifications! Which is why it is always important to choose a highly reputable and trusted source like Audio Tech Direct to avoid any disappointments.

VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY LIST

This custom fit head unit is designed to be an after-market replacement head unit for the original base level fitted head unit. The unit is supplied with a matching audio plug fitting from what should be stock entry level standard. Please read the fitment notes (if any) assigned to this product as we try to advise as many points on variant information and possibilities as we can.

COMPATIBLE WITH THE FOLLOWING MODELS:

• Mercedes Benz A-Class [W168] (1998-2002)
• Mercedes Benz C-Class [W203 Pre-facelift] (2000-2004)
• Mercedes Benz CLK [C209 & W209] (2002-2005)

• Mercedes Benz Vaneo [W414] (2002-2005)
• Mercedes Benz Vito [W639] (2003-2006)

PANEL SIZE: Top Width 220mm x Height 124mm X Bottom Width 210mm

FITMENT NOTES:

1. Mercedes Benz A-Class W168 | This will not fit models with the 212mm top width stereo fitted.
2. European vehicles supplied with factory single source head units will only have a battery permanent power source to it. As this is now being swapped out for an after-market radio (which are all dual source), you may find your new stereo may not power up, and this is no fault of the wiring harness purchased. These vehicles tend not to have an ignition switched live feed into the factory audio harness. In these cases it is necessary to manually connect a spurred live feed from fuse box to feed switched power so the new stereo turns on and off with the key. The wire in particular on the new wiring harness will be the red wire labelled ACC. Red wire has to be connected to a separate ignition feed in the vehicle to make aftermarket head unit to power up.
3. If your model has the D2B Fibre Optic amplifier, you have two options:
   A) RETAIN: You can retain the D2B amplifier by purchasing our part number ARC-20006 amplifier retention interface adaptor
   B) BYPASS: Bypass the amplifier by purchasing our amplifier bypass extension cable: part number ABC-20016. PLEASE NOTE: If your model has the BOSE amplifier, you will need to cut and crimp the speaker connections manually as the extension cable comes with the speaker input for Harmon Kardon amplifiers.

You cannot retain your stock CD changer when replacing the head unit with an after-market head unit.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The fitment guide is given as a guide only. We strongly recommend you double check the shape and dimensions against your application before purchase as some models on our fitment list do have different shape stereo's fitted from factory. It is your responsibility as the buyer to check you are purchasing the correct item for your vehicle.
