I would suggest a Merc forum.

Previous car centred requests haven't always been relevant.

You could always give the Comand NTG4.5 database instructions a try?

Honestly no idea if they use the same system though as the manufacturers rarely give any details...

Won’t work unfortunately.
Daimler removed any method to add alerts on legal grounds.
And god knows I tried….

It seems most, if not all, manufacturers are preventing databases being loaded into headunits.

In my opinion and usage that is no longer a problem for me.

My solution is to use Speedtrap Alert (Android) that broadcasts user adjustable timely warnings and removes the need to look away from the road.

When approaching a camera I get 'told' of the camera type and speed. Do I need to see a map icon - no, not really needed.

Most modern headunits allow smartphone connections so job done.

I totally agree. Speedtrap Alert is a good and easy to use app.
