Our tech experts advise

Your replacement head unit must have RCA audio out connectors — this is required for the CAN-Bus steering interface to work. The kit is compatible with most major brands including Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer and Sony; unbranded units may not fit correctly. Note that the vehicle's date and time setting is not retained after fitting. Professional installation is priced per vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this installation kit right for my vehicle?

A: Installation kits are vehicle-specific. Check the compatible makes, models and years in the product description, or contact CEN with your registration and we will confirm the exact kit you need.

Q: What is included in a stereo installation kit?

A: A typical kit includes the fascia panel to fill your dash aperture and the wiring harness to connect the new stereo without cutting factory wiring. Some vehicles also need an aerial adapter or steering wheel control interface, listed separately.

Q: Will I lose my steering wheel controls when fitting a new stereo?

A: Not if you use the right interface. Where your vehicle needs one, a steering wheel control adapter retains your existing buttons with the new stereo. We will advise if your vehicle requires it.
