Maybe Jaime will jump in here, but as far as I know the only thing I might have to do is add the “wake up” signal to the third connector that the CANBUS input needs. Otherwise, the analog connections are all the same. The only difference is in the third connector where the CANBUS signals come

Re: [MBZ] New W210 Wagon

The only difference is the third connector that the CANBUS signals come in on. One is power, another ground, and the third a “wake up” signal. There are signals for the steering wheel controls (CAN-high, CAN-low), too, but I don’t care about those and I don’t see them having any effect on the
