PLEASE NOTE: We fully test + load all our software, mapping etc onto each unit after your order has been placed right here in Australia! This ensures you get the most up-to-date system that’s ready to go!

Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive emails with tracking information, a tax invoice and your install / user guide. We apologise for the delay and appreciate your patience.
Installation
Most of our products come in "kit" format with everything required to install into your vehicle, this includes "plug and play" harnesses which are designed to make the installation as easy as possible. We also provide full installation instructions (including photos) from installations we have done. We also provide a comprehensive user guide and have many videos on YouTube showing various functions of our products.
Our kits are designed for DIY installation, the hardest part of the installation is normally removing the dash panels and factory unit.
We pride ourselves on after sales service and are generally very responsive to tech support emails.
However, if you are not confident in completing the installation yourself, we do recommend utilising a local professional to install it for you. Normally, auto electricians or Autobarn stores that are local to you will be able to install your kit without issue. We can even supply you with the contact details of a professional in your area if required!
If you have organised a local professional, we recommend passing on the installation / user guide (that you'll receive after placing an order) to them on the day of the installation. Alternatively, you can give them our email (www.customcarstereosystems@gmail.com) and we will be happy to pass on the relevant documents to ensure the installation goes off without a hitch!
Installation costs do vary depending on the product, vehicle and any additional extras that need to be installed. We can provide you with an estimate on labour time / cost, simply send us an email with your vehicle details and the product/s you're interested in!

FAQs
Q: What’s the difference between the “basic” and standard / QLED units?
A: Our basic models are a great option for customers who are after an easy to use unit with a larger screen and wireless Apple CarPlay / wireless Android Auto. They still have the regular features you’ll find on any car stereo, this includes AM/FM radio, reverse camera input and they’re compatible steering wheel controls. However, they do not allow for additional apps to be installed and are not compatible with HD cameras.
Q: What’s the difference between the standard and QLED units?
A: Quick glance:
STANDARD MODEL:
4GB of RAM (processing speed)
64GB of ROM (onboard memory)
1024 x 600 IPS screen
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto via USB
QLED MODEL:
8GB of RAM (processing speed)
128GB of ROM (onboard memory)
1280 x 720 HD QLED screen
Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto
Both models feature premium quality internal components and offer fast, smooth performance in normal everyday use. Where the QLED models shines though is its HD screen, with higher contrast levels and brighter colours. It is also a great choice for customers who are planning on running multiple apps at the same time, or storing large amounts of data (this could be apps, maps, music or movies).
Q: Does the unit come with a new dash frame that suits my car?
A: YES! All of our vehicle-specific units come complete with a new dash frame specific to your car. Some of our models even include a matte or gloss black finish option.
Q: Does the unit come with plug and play harnesses?
A: YES! All of our vehicle-specific units come with plug and play harnesses (no cutting or soldering is required).
Q: Will the unit retain all factory functions, including my steering wheel controls and reverse camera?
A: YES! Our units are compatible with these factory functions - no programming or special steps are needed!
Q: Can I install the unit myself?
A: YES! Provided you have some knowledge in removing dash panels etc in your car, and can follow our clear instructions, there is no reason why you shouldn’t be installing our products! Please note that if you are not confident in removing dash panels etc, then we recommend getting it installed by a professional (we can also help with suggestions here, simply send us a message after you’ve ordered and we can suggest a business that’s close to you).
Q: How much does a professional charge to install?
A: Installation charges vary depending on the vehicle, the person doing the job and the products to be installed. As a general guide, installation of our unit only ranges from $100 - $250. We can provide a more accurate estimate if you send through your vehicle details.
Q: Do you supply a tax invoice with the unit?
A: YES! As a fully registered Australian company, you will receive a tax invoice via email shortly after purchasing. Please check your “junk” email folder if you haven’t received the tax invoice within 30 minutes of placing an order.
