Yea thats not really an option that can/should be ordered separately. Its too many parts and youd have to ripe apart damn near the entire car to make the swap.

Yeah, my dealer actually said that an upgrade was something they couldn't do. It's a factory installed option. Probably for exactly the reason ben_r mentioned above. I asked about that when they told me they rarely bring in the ML package.

If you need more power in your audio system, I would suggest a professionally installed aftermarket system, but you already have the navigation system.

The player is only one component of the ML system. The amplifier in the trunk, the speakers and the wiring harnesses are also different.

the ML option is a factory install option, u can't add it on later. You need a different wiring harness. The sub is different, the speakers are different. I say u spend that money on adding on an aftermarket system.
