You don't need that box to trick the radio. The brake switch is a ground, not a 12V+. All you have to do is ground the brake wire from the radio.

For Alpines you do (I think), they go through a pretty lengthy process to make sure you just dont ground brake switch. (or so I have heard)

I'm not sure with the Alpines, but it worked for my buddies Jensen Touchscreen.

alpine just run a switch connect the hand brake and foot brake of the headunit to the switch than off the switch to both the foot/hand brake wires and how mine works is when u turn the radio on u hold down the brake pedal and push the switch up than down than release the brake and bang ur done u dont need to buy an by-pass kit

On the w205 I would rather not have to stop, pump brake , hand brake 3 times, just to change my treble/bass ,time, etc. The kits only like 17 bucks, just going to scoop it up.

It's a foot break on - set parking break- release foot brake Type action

To go through all that every time you drive is too much a pain in the ass for me.

I have Video Flips in 4 cars and have never been pulled over or questioned about what i got going on with the screen.

Wes, just get the adapter and call it a day..... It seems like it was made for you, not trying to be an ass but some people are not as savy as others when it comes to bypassing.
