Hunt for them on the Bay of Fleas.  I would come across some of the early 
navigation discs at PnP.  The market for them is not that active, as the cars 
that used them are garbage now.  The W220 used one form of disc from 2000-2003, 
then upgraded IIRC.  Best to just use your phone at this point.

this is exactly why all that garbage in new cars is just that.  
Garbage.  At best, the car should have a place to plug in a touch screen 
of a standard size, (ipad) with a standard interface (USB) and you can 
run the crap software from the automaker if you want, or run your own 
gps, etc.

My challenge has been getting navigation discs for it. When I first got the

My '08 is a Blutec but does't use bluejuice. The '09 will.
