Product features

Radio Replacement Bundle Suzuki Vitara 2015–2024 for Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT 9". Includes Fascia, SWC Interface, Antenna Adaptor, and Reverse Camera Retention. 


Product Overview

The Stinger HR9-SZ003 is a radio replacement bundle for installing the Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT 9-inch head unit into a Suzuki Vitara manufactured between 2015 and 2024. The bundle includes a 9-inch flush fit radio panel, a plug-and-play steering wheel control (SWC) interface with patch lead, an antenna adaptor, and a reverse camera retention interface. The 20-pin Suzuki connector is used for plug-and-play connection from the factory loom to standard ISO, and the SWC interface retains factory steering wheel audio controls with memory retention even after power loss.

There is an important caveat specific to this bundle: in some instances the reverse camera retention interface will require modification or re-wiring to connect correctly to the factory camera harness. Before connecting, compare the HR9-SZ003 camera interface harness to the vehicle's factory camera harness if they do not match, re-wiring or adaptation will be required. This is not universal to all Vitara variants but applies in some cases, and professional installation is recommended to handle this assessment and any required modification. The Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT head unit is not included. For Vitara owners who need only the fascia panel, the SF9-SZ03 is the correct product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT included?

No — the HR9-SZ003 is the installation hardware bundle only. The Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT head unit must be purchased separately.

Will the factory reverse camera work after installation?

The reverse camera retention interface is included, but in some Vitara variants the interface harness may not directly match the factory camera connector and will require modification or re-wiring. Before connecting, compare the HR9-SZ003 camera harness to the vehicle's factory harness. If they do not match, professional re-wiring will be required.

Will my factory steering wheel controls work after installation?

Yes — the SWC interface retains factory steering wheel audio controls with the Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT and maintains programming even after power loss.

What is the difference between the HR9-SZ003 and the SF9-SZ03?

The SF9-SZ03 is the fascia panel only for the Suzuki Vitara 2015–2024. The HR9-SZ003 is a complete installation bundle that also includes the SWC interface, antenna adaptor, and reverse camera retention interface. Choose the HR9-SZ003 for a more complete single-purchase installation kit.

Does the HR9-SZ003 include AUX/USB retention?

AUX/USB retention is not specified in the product documentation. Confirm with Stinger or F.A.E. before purchasing if retaining factory USB or AUX inputs is required.
