Yes, your problem is that Mercedes often offers different radio options for different countries? That yours is a 2006 makes things even tougher!
Best to pull the radio and hunt for 'tags', model numbers ~ anything that will help ID your specific radio? Then to find schematics and then hopefully odd parts? After all, it is a 12 year old radio and soon 13...
Perhaps the better choice is a new 'modern' radio with lots more features and this is especially true since you have to pull the radio anyway.

SOURCE: Ballpark price on 2007 Mercedes Benz C230 Maintenance B
The dealer near me charges $365 for a 4-cyl, $395 for a 6/8 cyl, or $425 for a 12-cyl. The only actual repair/maintenance you get for that price is an oil change (with Mobil1 and the MB filter, which are CRITICAL, ~$120 on its own) and tire rotation. This makes a lot of people think it's a scam, but really, it's a little steep, but definitely worth doing. The rest of the service consists of a massive inspection of your vehicle covering the following items.
-- Fluid levels
-- Tire tread/pressure/wheel condition
-- Air filter (inc. clean out housing)
-- Cabin air filter (inc. clean out housing)
-- Lubricate sunroof rails, locks, hinges, and seals on body.
-- Drive belt and tensioner
-- HVAC system operation
-- Instruments, cruise control
-- Wipers/washers/lights/horn
-- Windows/sunroof operation
-- Hoses
-- Transmission fluid
-- Brakes
-- Chassis/suspension
-- Driveshaft, inc. flex discs
-- Road test
-- Reset maintenance light
This is actually pretty essential to do, despite seeming like a lot of money for not much work. I have very rarely done one without catching a few things that the customer needs, and often it was a problem that would have gotten far worse had it been left to its own.

I have '05, both should be similar:
1.Cabin air filter is located above battery on right side against firewall.
Release three latches, remove filter housing, slide old filter out (housing is flexible), insert new
one, reinstall housing.
2.Engine air filter is on the left side of the block (follow intake hose). Cover is retained with six screws
(six point star shape,I belive called Torox, bit/scredriver size 25). Loosen screws (don' t pull all the
way out of the cover) lift cover , and remove old filter. Insert new one, reinstall cover. DO NOT
OVERTORQUE SCREWS! Screw holes in plastic filter housing strip very easily.
Note: Intake hose is very flimsy, one on my car came apart and had to be replaced.

SOURCE: How to change front headlight bulb on 2006
Int he back of the headlight, there is a plastic door. You need to open the little door by pressing a tab on the side to snap it off. So look for the tab first. If dust covers then it needs to be cleaned off for better observation. Once the door is open, you will see the a plug with wires attached to it. Pull the plug straightly out. There is a metal clip to hold the bulb in the place of its socket. Look carefully to see where the hook is, so you cant take off the clip from the hook. After the clip is released, the bulb can be easily taken off. Put a new bulb in, put back the clip, put in the plug, close the little plastic cover then you are done. Have fun.
