Multimedia & CarPlay
This page is all about your car's screen, radio and the link with your phone. We activate factory features where possible, repair original screens and add what your car is missing, from DAB+ and Bluetooth to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Installing Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
With Apple CarPlay for iPhone or Android Auto for Android phones, navigation, calls, messages and music appear on the screen in your dashboard, and you control everything from that screen or by voice. We install a screen or module that suits your car, with the wiring out of sight. You can book this installation online straight away.

Factory CarPlay activation
In some cars the factory system already supports Apple CarPlay, but the feature has been switched off. We activate it, so CarPlay appears in the menu on your existing screen and you use it with the controls you already know. Whether this is possible depends on your car's model and the exact version of its system. If your system does not support it, we can still install Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Installing & repairing original screens
Your factory screen is where you control the radio and your car's settings, and often where the camera view appears. If it stays blank, stops responding to touch or the picture keeps cutting out, we find out what is causing it and repair the screen where we can. If the screen needs replacing, we install an original screen that matches your car.
DAB+ digital radio
DAB+ gives you digital radio, with more stations than FM and clear sound without the familiar hiss. If your radio only receives FM, we add DAB+, linked to your existing radio or screen where possible. Stable reception needs a suitable antenna. We install that too, with the cable neatly hidden.
Bluetooth for calls and music
If your car can only use Bluetooth for calls, or has no Bluetooth at all, we install a Bluetooth module for both calls and music. You can then make hands-free calls and hear music, podcasts and navigation prompts from your phone wirelessly through your car's speakers. That way you do not need to pick up your phone while driving, which is not allowed in the Netherlands anyway.
USB and AUX inputs
If your radio has no USB port or AUX input, we install one if your system allows it. You can then play music from your phone through your car's sound system, and charge your phone via USB while you drive. Wired Apple CarPlay or Android Auto also needs a USB port that works properly.
Steering wheel controls
The buttons on your steering wheel let you change the volume, skip to another track or station and answer calls without taking your hands off the wheel. When we install a new radio or screen, we connect the steering wheel controls to it wherever the new unit supports them. If the buttons have stopped working since an earlier installation, we find out why.
Keeping your factory features
A new screen or a module for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto should not take away what your car could already do, such as the factory reversing camera, the parking sensor display, the on-screen climate controls or the vehicle settings menu. We connect new equipment so that you keep those features, as far as your car allows. Before we start, we tell you what is possible in your car.
