Features & Benefits

Factory Reverse Camera Retention: The integrated camera retention adapter preserves your existing reverse camera connection to the new headunit, maintaining critical parking safety features without the cost and complexity of installing a new camera system. Essential for family crossover applications where the camera assists with school drop-offs, shopping centre parking, and reversing in tight residential driveways with children or pets nearby.

Complete Steering Wheel Control with Bluetooth Button: The included SWC harness preserves all steering wheel-mounted controls including volume, track selection, phone functions, and the factory Bluetooth button for instant hands-free calling. Critical for family crossover driving where maintaining hands on the wheel during school runs, commuting, and family trips ensures safe operation with children aboard.

Dash 3 Specific Engineering: The fascia panel is precision-molded for the 2007-2013 Dualis's Dash 3 configuration, which differs from Dash 1 and Dash 2 in mounting architecture and wiring layout. Critical for professional installations where higher-specification Dualis models with factory cameras require configuration-specific components for proper fitment.

Factory Antenna Integration Maintained: The included antenna adapter ensures proper connection between your factory radio antenna and the new aftermarket headunit, maintaining strong AM/FM radio reception without signal loss. Essential for suburban and urban driving where radio provides traffic updates, school zone warnings, and entertainment during family transportation duties.

True Plug-and-Play Installation: All harnesses including the SWC adapter and camera retention adapter connect directly to factory plugs without any wire cutting, stripping, or soldering required. Reduces installation time in busy workshops and eliminates wiring errors, particularly important for camera-equipped vehicles where incorrect wiring can damage expensive camera systems.

Enhanced Safety and Connectivity for Family Crossover: Brings contemporary features including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, enhanced Bluetooth streaming, and GPS navigation to the 2007-2013 Dualis while retaining both factory parking safety (camera) and hands-free convenience (SWC with BT button). Transforms the practical family crossover into a fully connected, safety-enhanced transport solution with seamless hands-free operation and maintained parking visibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Dash 3 and Dash 1/Dash 2 configurations?

Dash 3 configuration is found on higher-specification Dualis models equipped with factory reverse cameras and has different mounting points and wiring than Dash 1 and Dash 2. If your 2007-2013 Dualis has a factory reverse camera, you likely have Dash 3 and need this kit (F9NS3K2).

Will the reverse camera display properly on all aftermarket headunits?

The camera retention adapter provides video passthrough. Most modern 9-inch headunits from Alpine, Kenwood, and Pioneer support reverse camera inputs with automatic switching when reverse gear is engaged. Confirm camera input capability with your headunit supplier before purchasing.

Does the Bluetooth button work with aftermarket headunits?

The SWC harness provides the Bluetooth button signal to the aftermarket headunit. However, actual functionality depends on the headunit's steering wheel control programming capabilities. Most modern headunits from major brands support this function.

Can I use this kit if my Dualis doesn't have a factory camera?

This kit is designed for Dash 3 configuration which typically includes factory cameras. If your Dualis has Dash 3 configuration but no camera, this kit will still work—you simply won't use the camera adapter. However, if you have Dash 1 or Dash 2 configuration, use the F9NS3K1 kit instead.

What additional parts might I need for installation?

The kit includes the fascia, SWC harness, camera adapter, and antenna adapter. Depending on your chosen headunit, you may need additional items such as a GPS antenna adapter or specific CANbus interface for optimal SWC functionality.
