What to check before ordering

  1. Measure the opening and depth. Check the opening behind the fascia, the mounting points and room for connectors.
  2. Check screen clearance. Make sure the display clears vents, controls and the gear selector.
  3. Identify the factory audio equipment. A factory amp, reversing camera or steering-wheel controls may need their own retention adapter. Check the product listing for included parts.

Does a universal head unit fit every car?

Fit depends on the dash, mounts and wiring. For an integrated factory radio or a factory amplifier, check for a vehicle-specific kit or send TEYES a dashboard photo and your vehicle details before ordering.

Which models support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?

Check the exact model and variant for phone connectivity, camera inputs and audio options. The TEYES model comparison can help you decide which range to look at.
