Updating DB9 Centre stack

[R129 300SL]

Hi

Does anybody know if it is possible to update the centre stack where the heater controls and stereo are. ie from a 2005 to a post 2008 one.

Is it just a case of plug and play for the electronic connectors or is it more involved?

Thanks

Sorry, because my answer is not what you are hoping.

I don't have an HND in auto electronics, which is probably necessary for this modification, but can remember this question being asked on previous occasions.

As you will know, the DBS centre design was used for the DB9 in ?, and the Vantage in MY2009. I don't think anyone has told the forum they have completed this change, indicating it must be very difficult or prohibitively expensive. On the Vantage (perhaps DB9 as well), the starter changes from column key to the centre push 'key', so wiring must be different for that alone.

As Jon said, not possible, different wiring loom. Some people have sprayed the surround. Looks good

Thanks.

That explains why I couldn't find any information on this.
