⚠ Professional Installation Recommended. Although this unit arrives with a plug-and-play harness, wiring configurations can vary between trim levels and production years. Professional installation (R350–R600 at any car audio fitment centre) ensures CANBUS integration, CarPlay, Android Auto, steering wheel controls, and DSP audio all function correctly. Every unit is powered on and quality-checked before dispatch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit my exact vehicle?
Yes — this unit is designed specifically for the model and year range listed. It arrives with a vehicle-specific wiring harness (plug-and-play, no cutting) and a fascia panel that fits your dashboard opening precisely. If you are unsure about your trim level or a facelift model, WhatsApp us your registration before ordering and we will confirm.
Can I install it myself?
Many customers do — the wiring harness is plug-and-play and requires no wire cutting. Plan for 1–2 hours with basic tools. However, professional installation (at any car audio fitment centre) typically takes 60–90 minutes and costs R350–R600. We recommend professional fitting for CANBUS-dependent vehicles (VW, BMW, Mercedes, Ford SYNC models) to ensure steering wheel controls and vehicle integration work correctly.
Does it really support wireless CarPlay and Android Auto?
Yes. Both are wireless — no cable required. Open your iPhone/Android camera, scan the QR code shown on the unit's screen on first setup, and you're connected. You can also connect via WiFi manually. Works with any iPhone (iOS 10+) and Android phone (5.0+) with Android Auto installed.
What happens if something goes wrong after installation?
WhatsApp us a short video of the issue. We resolve most problems remotely — CANBUS configuration, steering wheel learning, camera mirror settings, and Bluetooth pairing issues are all software-side fixes we can walk you through in minutes. If the unit has a manufacturing defect within 12 months, we replace it. Full stop.
