Touchscreen Switching Module

This module is fitted to the rear of the Radio Facia/Screen, It is only installed at our shop on Plug and Play Kits, We have a few different options below in order to install this.

This requires disassembling your factory radio face plate/screen and soldering to the PCB circuit board and also running delicate ribbons. This is a very advanced install and is not recommended for anyone that does not have experience with electronics.
  • You can either supply us with your current or a replacement radio facia of same type to have it fitted so we can send it back with the upgrade kit.
  • We can supply a Changeover radio facia, this will be of same style to your current facia, these are secondhand facia’s that are tested and cleaned, they may have minor marks being secondhand, volume and tune knobs are not supplied, you are to use your original ones. This option has a core deposit attached and will be in the options below, Facia’s returned that are visually or physically damaged will not receive the core deposit refund.
  • We can supply a Brand New radio facia, this will be of same style to your current facia, Volume and tune knobs are not supplied, you are to use your original ones. This option is an outright purchase and you do not need to send us a facia back.

These options are available in the drop down selections below, Do Not select a different style facia from your current facia design as it will not fit your vehicle.

Programming

Included in the price of the kit is for the headunit to be programmed, The head unit requires programming to accept the module to work with the head unit to display the picture on the screen.

  • Option 1 is to send your Head unit box in when you send your facia in to be programmed at the same time.
  • Option 2 is to supply a Flashbox to program the headunit in vehicle, this is handy if you purchase the changeover or outright facia options, there is a $100 Core deposit on the flashbox which is refunded once the Flashbox is received by us.
  • Option 3 is for the Chevrolet PPV owners purchase an Outright radio box that is also fully programmed with features all unlocked.

Your steering wheel controls for skipping songs while using the carplay/android auto system does not work. We are working on an addon solution for this but do not have any ETA on its arrival. Your steering controls for skipping still work for all other parts of the radio including bluetooth and AM/FM radio, only the new carplay/android auto does not work with them.

Your steering wheel controls for volume still work correctly.

Yes your aircon still works and so does all other factory radio capabilities.

You cannot see what your aircon is set to when in the carplay/android auto screen. You can easily see your aircon though by tapping the TUNE button, pressing the screen to minimise carplay and then view/change your aircon as desired. Finally press the screen again to maximise carplay/android auto and press TUNE button again to engage the touch capability.

If you have a factory reverse camera, the carplay screen will ‘minimise’ when you put the vehicle into reverse and then back into drive. To bring it back to fullscreen, the user will need to press the TUNE button, tap the screen to maximise the carplay/android auto screen and then TUNE button again to engage to carplay touch control.

The factory RSE programming in the radios (Which is the video input that our kits use) is what causes the carplay screen to minimise when putting the vehicle into reverse. For customers with factory reverse camera, we recommend plugging your phone in, reversing out of your parking spot and then maximising the carplay/android auto screen and finally tapping the tune button, this process takes only a couple seconds to do.
