A fully matched upgrade kit for the Ford Everest (2015-2022) and Ranger PX2 (2015-2018), the AX9129K combines a 6.8" wireless CarPlay and Android Auto multimedia receiver with a vehicle-specific black fascia installation kit including reverse camera retention and antenna adaptor, plus a 720P AHD surface mount camera, all in one box.
Product Overview
The AX9129K is Aerpro's complete head unit upgrade solution engineered for the Ford Everest (2015-2022) and Ford Ranger PX2 (2015-2018). It is supplied as a three-component kit comprising the Aerpro 6.8" multimedia receiver, the vehicle-specific installation kit tailored to the shared dashboard profile across these models, and a 720P AHD surface mount camera. No additional accessories need to be sourced for a standard installation. The vehicle-specific installation kit includes a black fascia kit, a steering wheel control interface, a reverse camera retention lead, an antenna adaptor, and a universal SWC patch lead, ensuring factory steering wheel controls and the factory reverse camera are retained after installation.
The 6.8" capacitive touchscreen at 1024x600 resolution supports wireless and wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth V5 with HFP 1.6 HD Voice, A2DP audio streaming, AVRCP media control, and PBAP phonebook access. Both internal and external microphone options are provided, with the external microphone and mount included in the head unit box. Audio performance is delivered via 4 x 50W maximum output, a 13-band graphic EQ covering 32Hz through to 16kHz, time alignment, subwoofer low-pass filter control, and 4V 6-channel RCA preouts covering front, rear, and subwoofer channels for external amplifier integration. Dual rear USB inputs support CarPlay and Android Auto on USB 1 and media playback on USB 2, each at 5V/1.5A charging. Dual AHD 720P-compatible camera inputs accept the included surface mount camera and an additional second camera simultaneously.
The included 720P AHD surface mount camera uses a Sony 225 1/3" CMOS sensor with a 150-degree lens angle and is mountable as a front, rear, or reverse camera. It is supplied with 6 metres of RCA video cable with an in-line reverse trigger wire. Note that Head Unit Upgrade Kits can vary between vehicle models.

Features & Benefits
Complete Vehicle-Specific Upgrade Kit for Everest and Ranger PX2: The AX9129K includes all components required for a complete installation across the Ford Everest (2015-2022) and Ranger PX2 (2015-2018) without additional accessory sourcing. The vehicle-specific installation kit covers the fascia, steering wheel control interface, reverse camera retention, antenna adaptor, and patch lead requirements shared across these platforms.
Reverse Camera Retention Lead Included: The vehicle-specific installation kit includes a dedicated reverse camera retention lead that connects the factory reverse camera to the new head unit, allowing it to continue displaying on the 6.8" screen when reverse gear is selected. This is addressed within the kit without requiring additional camera adaptors for standard factory reverse camera setups on these models.
Antenna Adaptor Included: The vehicle-specific installation kit includes an antenna adaptor to ensure the factory antenna connection from the Ford Everest and Ranger PX2 interfaces correctly with the head unit's Motorola-style antenna input, maintaining full AM/FM signal performance after installation.
Black Fascia Kit for Everest and Ranger PX2 Dashboard Integration: The included black fascia kit is designed specifically for the shared dashboard profile across the Ford Everest and Ranger PX2, providing a clean, factory-fit finish around the 6.8" head unit that integrates with the interior trim of these SUV and ute platforms.
6.8" Capacitive Touchscreen at 1024x600: The 6.8" capacitive touchscreen delivers a large, responsive display with 1024x600 resolution for clear navigation of maps, media, and settings, well suited to the dashboard opening of the Everest and Ranger PX2.
Wireless and Wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto: Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto operate wirelessly for hands-free smartphone integration, or via wired USB connection for simultaneous charging. On first wireless connection, a one-time pairing via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi is required before subsequent connections become automatic.
Bluetooth V5 with HFP 1.6 HD Voice: Bluetooth V5 supports A2DP high-quality audio streaming, AVRCP media control, PBAP phonebook access, and HFP 1.6 HD Voice quality hands-free calling. Both an internal microphone and an external microphone with mount are included, allowing the external microphone to be positioned optimally in the cabin.
13-Band Graphic EQ with Time Alignment: The 13-band EQ covers 32Hz, 63Hz, 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz, 8kHz, 10kHz, 12kHz, 14kHz, and 16kHz for precise acoustic tuning, complemented by time alignment and a subwoofer low-pass filter for a complete onboard tuning toolkit.
4V 6-Channel RCA Preouts: Six RCA preamp channels at 4V covering front, rear, and subwoofer outputs allow external amplifiers to be added to the system with a high-output, low-noise signal. Subwoofer level control is also provided directly from the head unit.
720P AHD Surface Mount Camera Included: The included 720P AHD surface mount camera uses a Sony 225 1/3" CMOS sensor, a 150-degree lens angle, optional parking guidelines, and an IP67 waterproof rating. It can be mounted as a front, rear, or reverse camera and connects to the head unit via the included 6-metre RCA cable with in-line reverse trigger wire.
Dual AHD 720P Camera Inputs: Two independent AHD 720P-compatible camera inputs allow the retained factory reverse camera and the included surface mount camera to be connected simultaneously, supporting configurations such as front and reverse or reverse and towing cameras, which is particularly practical for the Ranger PX2's towing use case.
6-Colour Button Illumination: The key illumination is selectable across six colours including red, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white, allowing the button lighting to be matched to the Everest and Ranger PX2 interior.
AM/FM Tuner with RDS: FM tuning covers 87.5-108.0MHz with 18 presets, and AM covers 522-1710kHz with 12 presets, with RDS support for station and track information display.

The dual AHD 720P camera inputs are compatible with most aftermarket AHD 720P and standard composite cameras in addition to the included surface mount camera.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the AX9129K retain the factory reverse camera in the Everest and Ranger PX2?
Yes. The vehicle-specific installation kit includes a dedicated reverse camera retention lead that connects the factory reverse camera to the new head unit, allowing it to continue displaying on the 6.8" screen when reverse gear is selected. This is addressed within the kit without requiring additional camera adaptors for standard factory reverse camera setups on these models.
Does the AX9129K retain the factory steering wheel controls?
Yes. The vehicle-specific installation kit includes a steering wheel control interface and a universal SWC patch lead that connects to the head unit's SWC input, allowing the factory steering wheel audio controls to operate with the new head unit after installation and calibration.
Why does the AX9129K include an antenna adaptor?
The Ford Everest and Ranger PX2 use a factory antenna connector that differs from the standard Motorola-style antenna input on the head unit. The included antenna adaptor bridges the factory vehicle antenna connector to the head unit's antenna input, ensuring full AM and FM signal reception is maintained after installation without any signal degradation.
Can the included 720P AHD camera be used alongside the retained factory reverse camera?
Yes. The head unit provides two independent AHD 720P-compatible camera inputs. The factory reverse camera connects through the retention lead to one camera input, and the included 720P AHD surface mount camera can be connected to the second camera input for use as a front, towing, or additional reverse camera. This allows dual camera functionality with both the factory reverse camera and the included surface mount camera connected and operational simultaneously.
Can external amplifiers be connected to the AX9129K?
Yes. The head unit provides 4V 6-channel RCA preouts covering front, rear, and subwoofer channels, allowing external amplifiers to be connected for higher output power or a dedicated subwoofer channel. The 4V output voltage provides a strong, low-noise signal compatible with most aftermarket car audio amplifiers. Subwoofer level control is also available directly from the head unit for convenient bass adjustment without accessing the amplifier directly.
