There comes a time when your vehicles radio isn’t cutting it anymore, either it is broken or technology has passed it up and the idea of throwing several thousands of dollars at an antique is not an option.
But what to do, as even a refurbished Mercedes-Benz radio is $4,000.00? In the past the only option was to replace the whole entire system COMAND navigation, amplifier, and speakers. Not true today with the implementation of the OPTI-1. The OPTI-1 allows for the factory radio to be replaced with an aftermarket radio allowing you to retain the integrity of the factory optical system, including the audio gateway (AGW), amplifier, and speakers while adding a modern day navigation system or multimedia radio.
