yes it requires lots of cutting and rewiring and a couple custom made harnesses to make it all work. it IS NOT plug and play at all

It would not be possible to use the ml+ by only changing the screen and nav ecu? Keep the Hu the same.

Connections
Hi Benbuilt4u,
Got a question for you. Do you know if the connections at the back of GEN5 cd changer are the same as the GEN4? connections from the screen and from the car from the cd changer.
