Features & Benefits

FJ Cruiser-Specific Engineering – Designed exclusively for Toyota FJ Cruiser models from 2011-2016 with included fascia panel that matches your distinctive factory dash perfectly. Plug-and-play harnesses connect to existing wiring without cutting or splicing, maintaining the reliability Toyota engineered into this iconic retro-styled 4WD platform.

Wireless CarPlay Freedom – Connect your iPhone wirelessly and access Apple Maps, Spotify, Messages, and Siri through the 9-inch display without cable clutter. The system remembers your device and connects automatically when you start your FJ Cruiser, keeping your charging port available for other devices during beach runs, trail adventures, or weekend touring.

Android Auto Convenience – Pair compatible Android phones wirelessly (some models require wired connection) to mirror Google Maps, YouTube Music, WhatsApp, and Google Assistant on the touchscreen. Voice commands handle navigation and messaging while your hands remain on the wheel navigating sand dunes, rocky trails, and challenging terrain where FJ Cruisers thrive.

Latest Android 13 System – The upgraded NK 13.0 operating system provides enhanced security protocols, improved app compatibility, and refined performance over previous Android versions. Access Google Play Store to download navigation apps, weather radar tools, and offline mapping solutions while the system manages updates automatically over WiFi.

Expanded 64GB Storage – Double the internal storage of earlier models accommodates extensive offline map data for remote 4WD tracks and beach access routes, large music libraries with lossless audio files, multiple navigation apps for redundancy, and various Android applications essential for off-road exploration where FJ Cruisers demonstrate their capability.

Built-In GPS Navigation – Preloaded GPS data provides offline navigation capability when mobile coverage drops on remote 4WD tracks, coastal access routes, or outback trails where FJ Cruisers prove their go-anywhere capability. Download alternative navigation apps from Google Play Store, update maps over WiFi, or run multiple navigation solutions for comprehensive coverage.

High-Brightness IPS Display – The 1280×720 resolution IPS panel with 500nit brightness maintains excellent visibility in harsh Australian sunlight, essential for FJ Cruiser owners navigating exposed beach environments, desert trails, and coastal tracks. Wide viewing angles ensure passengers can see navigation details, and the capacitive touchscreen responds reliably even in dusty or sandy conditions.

Enhanced Pre-Output Signal – The 4V pre-output voltage delivers twice the signal strength of standard 2V units, reducing noise interference when driving external amplifiers. This clean signal improves sound quality in upgraded audio systems, ideal for FJ Cruiser enthusiasts building premium audio configurations to match the vehicle's adventurous spirit.

Factory Control Retention – CAN bus integration maintains functionality of factory Toyota FJ Cruiser steering wheel controls, letting you adjust volume, skip tracks, and manage calls using existing buttons. The system adapts to Toyota's control protocols without requiring additional adapters, preserving the integrated driving experience.

Complete Installation Package – Includes FJ Cruiser-specific fascia panel, main wiring harness, RCA cables, camera cable, speaker cables, external microphone, GPS antenna, USB cables, and user manual. Everything required for installation is provided, though professional fitting is recommended for optimal integration with factory systems.
