Fascia Adaptor

This adaptor will convert the non din-sized aperture left after removing the factory stereo to a din size ready for head unit installation. The high quality finish, colour and texture are designed specifically to maintain the original look of your vehicles interior.

This fitting kit is supplied with a gloss black (also called piano black) fascia adapter panel suitable for a double din aftermarket radio. The fascia adapter allows the fitting of an aftermarket radio into the dashboard by matching the shape, style and colour of the original radio. Use the fascia adapter with the supplied fitting cage to install a double din radio.

Steering Control Adaptor

A stalk/steering wheel control adaptor enables you to utilise the original factory remote audio (whether built onto steering wheel or fitted on a stalk next to the steering wheel) with an aftermarket unit. 

A Quadlock to ISO adapter cable with CANbus steering control interface is supplied in the kit. This cable adapts from the original connector in the car, known as a quadlock, to standard aftermarket connectors for the new stereo, known as ISO connectors. The CANbus steering wheel control interface will retain the use of the original radio controls on the steering wheel with an aftermarket stereo. The CANbus interface generates a key present ignition supply to the new stereo, this means the stereo will turn on with the first click of the key and stay on until the key is removed from the ignition barrel. The interface also generates speed pulse, reverse gear and handbrake output signals, these are used when installing multimedia, navigation units and reverse cameras. This interface is built into the Quadlock to ISO harness adapter so installation.

The CANbus interface requires a data wire to be connected at the rear of the display screen at the top of the dashboard (instructions are included), because our interface connects to the data signal here, rather than at the rear of the radio, it means that it never loses the data connection to the car. Other interfaces, when connected at the rear of the radio, will lose the data connection, this is because the car recognises that the original radio is no longer present and shuts down the data signal. This data signal does not shut down at the display screen.

Aerial Adaptor

An Aerial Adaptor is needed when replacing the original factory fitted head unit with an aftermarket head unit.  

A Fakra to DIN antenna adapter is included in the kit. This adapts from the original style antenna connectors in the car, known as Fakra connectors, to a standard aftermarket connector for the new stereo, known as a DIN connector.

Built-in DAB+ Digital Radio Tuner

DAB+ is short for Digital Audio Broadcasting, meaning the digital transmission of sound. DAB+ radios are digital radios that are the successors of classic FM radios. DAB+ delivers CD-quality crystal clear sound and doesn't suffer from the same types of interference or static issues than with analogue AM/FM radio. Tuning is also easier: simply select your favourite radio station from the alphabetical station list.

Easy Installation With a Compact Rear Chassis

Despite its double-DIN display, the L-shaped chassis is only half sized than conventional double-DIN units.
The reduced depth and the L-shape of the chassis contributes to a weight reduction and facilitates easier installation.

High Resolution WSVGA (1024 x 600px) LCD Display

The 1024x600px Wide Super VGA (WSVGA) display reproduces approximately 1.6 times higher resolution than the conventional WVGA display. You can enjoy finely detailed expression of color gradients and lifelike visuals in dramas and movies, enhancing your viewing experience.

Rear View Camera Input with Parking Guidelines

An optional rear view camera enhances safety while backing up and monitoring behind your vehicle. Built-in, adjustable parking guidelines further add to its effectiveness.
