F.A.Q.
DO THESE KITS WORK WITH MY CAR?
Most of our products are vehicle-specific. Please check the compatibility information on the product page carefully. If you’re unsure, just message us with your car’s make, model, year, and current screen setup - we’ll confirm the correct kit before you order.
Is this truly plug & play?
Almost! Our OEM Style CarPlay & Android Auto Kits are designed to be as straightforward as possible, but installation does require some light installation, such as removing a few interior panels to remove the OEM Stereo. No cutting of wires or specialist tools are needed, and most customers complete the process comfortably at home.
Does it retain steering wheel controls?
Absolutely. Our kits are fully compatible with your car's existing steering wheel controls, so you can skip tracks, adjust volume, and navigate menus without taking your hands off the wheel, just as the manufacturer intended.
Will this affect my car’s sound quality?
Not at all. Our kits integrate seamlessly with your car's factory audio system, so you'll enjoy the same sound quality you're used to. In many cases, streaming music through CarPlay via a high-quality source can actually enhance your listening experience.
Will it drain my battery?
Our kits are designed to draw minimal power and are engineered to shut off correctly with your ignition. When installed properly, you won't experience any noticeable battery drain or issues with your vehicle's electrical system.
Where do you ship from?
We ship from within the UK, so you won't face unexpected customs charges or long international waiting times. Orders are dispatched quickly and arrive within 2-3 working days.
DO I NEED PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION?
Many kits can be installed DIY if you’re confident with vehicle trim removal and plug-and-play wiring. However, we recommend professional installation for more complex systems or if you want the cleanest finish.
WHAT IS YOUR RETURNS AND SUPPORT POLICY?
We offer full support before and after purchase. If you need help with installation or troubleshooting, our team is here. Returns are accepted on unused items in original condition - please contact us first so we can guide you through the process quickly.
