About the Pioneer SPH-DA250DAB
From our tech experts at CEN
A head unit with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, DAB radio, replacing the factory stereo.
Who it suits
Drivers who want their phone on the dashboard properly rather than propped in a cradle. Navigation, music and calls come through the car instead of fighting it.
Our tech experts advise
The unit is the straightforward part. A vehicle-specific facia kit, a wiring harness and usually a steering wheel control interface decide whether the finished job looks factory or aftermarket, and those parts differ by model, year and trim. We confirm exactly what your vehicle needs before ordering — get in touch. See car stereo installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this stereo fit my car?
A: Most vehicles need a fascia panel, wiring harness and sometimes a steering wheel control interface to fit a new stereo. Contact CEN with your make, model and year and we will confirm the exact installation kit needed, or browse our Connects 2 installation kits.
Q: Will I keep my steering wheel controls?
A: Yes, in almost all cases. A steering wheel control interface retains your existing buttons with the new stereo. Parts are sold separately.
Q: Does this stereo support Apple CarPlay or Android Auto?
A: Check the Specification tab, which lists smartphone connectivity for each model including whether CarPlay and Android Auto are wired or wireless on that unit.
Q: What is the difference between single DIN and double DIN?
A: DIN refers to the chassis size. Single DIN units are the traditional slim format, while double DIN units are twice the height and typically carry a touchscreen. Your vehicle's dash aperture and fascia kit determine which fits.
Q: Can CEN supply and fit the stereo?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional supply and installation from our Nottingham premises, including fascia, wiring and steering control integration. Contact us for a fitted price.
Q: Is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wireless on the SPH-DA250DAB?
A: No. Both connect with a USB cable. Android Auto needs Android 5.0 or later, and Apple CarPlay requires iPhone 5 or newer with the latest iOS.
Q: Can I fit front and rear cameras to the SPH-DA250DAB?
A: Yes. It has dual camera inputs for a reverse camera and a front facing camera. Cameras such as the Pioneer ND-BC8 are optional and sold separately.
