Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this fascia kit include the aftermarket head unit, or do I need to purchase it separately?

A: This is a fascia kit with wiring harness only - the aftermarket head unit is NOT included and must be purchased separately. Choose from compatible Alpine AW409S/AX809, Kenwood DMX80AXS, Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT, Nakamichi Android systems, or aftermarket Android stereos featuring universal trapezoid 9 inch mounting format. Note that this kit is designed for 9 inch head units only, not 10 inch units. The fascia kit provides the mounting solution and wiring integration to install your chosen aftermarket head unit in your Suzuki Grand Vitara 2005-2013.

Q: What is the FDINM2 mount bracket and do I need it?

A: The FDINM2 mount bracket is required for head units with back DIN connections that need vertical installation. This includes Alpine AW409S/AX809, Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT, Nakamichi Android systems, and many aftermarket Android stereos. The FDINM2 bracket is NOT included with this fascia kit and must be ordered separately. Contact Frankie's Auto Electrics to verify if your selected head unit requires the FDINM2 bracket and to order it along with this fascia kit.

Q: Will my steering wheel controls work with an aftermarket head unit?

A: Yes, this fascia kit includes a steering wheel control harness that retains full factory steering wheel control functionality. Most modern aftermarket head units (Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, Nakamichi) feature automatic SWC detection and will recognize steering wheel button presses immediately after installation with no programming required. Some head units may require brief manual SWC learning where you press each steering wheel button to assign functions.

Q: Can I use a 10 inch head unit with this fascia kit?

A: No, this fascia kit is designed specifically for universal trapezoid 9 inch head units only. It will NOT accommodate 10 inch head units. The mounting aperture and fascia dimensions are specifically sized for 9 inch screens. If you require a 10 inch head unit installation, you will need a different fascia kit designed for 10 inch mounting. Verify your chosen head unit is a 9 inch universal trapezoid format before purchase.

Q: Why is vertical installation required for back DIN head units?

A: The Suzuki Grand Vitara's dashboard design requires certain head units with back DIN connections to be mounted vertically for proper fitment and cable management. The FDINM2 mount bracket enables this vertical installation configuration. This is a vehicle-specific requirement due to the Grand Vitara's dash geometry and does not affect the front appearance or functionality of the installed head unit.

Q: Will all factory features work with any aftermarket head unit, or does it depend on which head unit I choose?

A: While this fascia kit includes steering wheel control harness and antenna adapter for basic integration, the actual feature retention capabilities depend significantly on your chosen aftermarket head unit model. Canbus-equipped head units like Alpine AW409S/AX809, Kenwood DMX80AXS, Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT, and Nakamichi Android systems offer the most comprehensive feature retention. Basic aftermarket Android stereos may offer limited feature retention depending on their Canbus capabilities. For maximum feature retention, we recommend Canbus-equipped head units from Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, or Nakamichi.
