One 9" Wireless CarPlay Kit Across Six Mercedes and VW Models Non-Amplified, SWC and Vehicle Menu Retained

Product Overview

The Aerpro AMDMC2 is a complete head unit upgrade kit covering a broad range of non-amplified Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen vehicles: the Mercedes A-Class W169 (2005–2011, excluding single DIN variants), B-Class W245 (2005–2011), Sprinter (2007–2018), Viano (2008–2011), Vito W639 (2006–2014), and Volkswagen Crafter (2007–2013). Across all of these, it replaces the factory unit with a 9" capacitive touchscreen at 1024x600 resolution, adding wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, built-in DAB+ digital radio, and Bluetooth V5 while retaining steering wheel controls and vehicle menu access.

The kit includes the AM905D multimedia receiver, a gloss black facia kit, SWC interface harness, SWC patch lead, antenna adaptors (multiple included to suit vehicle variances across the range), and a 720P AHD universal rear camera. Factory reverse camera, USB input, and AUX input are not retained the head unit's own connectivity replaces those functions. There is no park brake wire requirement on this kit.

• Mercedes Sprinter (2007–2018) and VW Crafter (2007–2013) compatible — extends coverage to high-volume commercial vans, not just passenger vehicles; useful for tradies, fleet operators, and van conversions requiring a modern screen and wireless CarPlay

Frequently Asked Questions

Which specific models does the AMDMC2 suit?

It suits the Mercedes A-Class W169 (2005–2011, double DIN factory unit only), B-Class W245 (2005–2011), Sprinter (2007–2018), Viano (2008–2011), Vito W639 (2006–2014), and Volkswagen Crafter (2007–2013) — all non-amplified variants. Use the Aerpro What Fits Your Car Guide to confirm your exact build.

Why doesn't it suit the Mercedes A-Class with a single DIN unit?

The AMDMC2 is designed for the double DIN factory head unit configuration in the A-Class W169. Vehicles fitted with a single DIN factory unit have a different dash opening and require a different kit — this one will not physically fit those variants.

How do I know if my vehicle is non-amplified?

A factory-amplified vehicle has a separate amplifier unit (typically mounted under a seat or in the boot) with its own speaker wiring running from it. If all speaker wiring runs directly from the factory head unit with no separate amplifier, the vehicle is non-amplified. The Aerpro What Fits Your Car Guide can also assist with confirming this.

Why are multiple antenna adaptors included in the kit?

The AMDMC2 covers six different vehicle models across two brands, each of which may use different factory antenna connector types. Multiple antenna adaptors are included so the correct one can be selected for your specific vehicle during installation.

What factory features are not retained after installation?

The factory reverse camera, USB input, and AUX input are not retained. The head unit's own dual USB ports, wireless connectivity, and CarPlay/Android Auto replace these functions. SWC and vehicle menu are retained.
