About the Pioneer SPH-EVO98DAB-VAG
From our tech experts at CEN
The Pioneer SPH-EVO98DAB-VAG is a 9 inch floating-screen stereo kit. It pairs the modular SPH-EVO98DAB with a Volkswagen van installation kit, with the cables, interfaces, fitting parts and adapters for a tailored fit. The 9.0 inch capacitive touchscreen runs wireless or wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with DAB+ radio, Bluetooth hands-free and a 13-band EQ.
Who it suits
Volkswagen van owners who want a large phone-mirroring screen that fits the dash properly. The SPH-EVO98DAB-C-VAG is the camper version, adding a Sygic camper navigation voucher.
Our tech experts advise
The wiring loom, USB extension and external microphone are included, but the DAB antenna (CA-AN-DAB.001) is sold separately and makes a big difference to reception. Two camera inputs allow a reversing camera to be added. Steering wheel controls may need an interface. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your model and year.
