No cable required. Jump in, phone connects automatically. Navigate with Google Maps or Apple Maps, stream Spotify, take calls — all from the screen, not the phone mount.

Installation
An afternoon.
Basic tools.
Done.
Basic tools.
Done.
01
Pull the factory unit
Use the supplied trim tools to remove your dash surround. The factory head unit slides out without removing the entire centre console.
02
Connect the harness
The supplied ISO harness adapter plugs directly into your Patrol's factory wiring loom. All connectors are keyed — you cannot fit them incorrectly.
03
Slide in, clip back
Mount the unit in the DIN cage using the supplied brackets. Your factory dash surround clips straight back on — no gaps, no rattles.
04
Pair and drive
Power on, connect your phone via USB or wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, set your GPS antenna position. You're done.
Every unit ships with a 46-page printed installation guide, paper instructions, a 1280P camera, and an OBD2 scanner. A full video walkthrough is also available on the Tech4Tourers YouTube channel.

★★★★★
"Fitted it in about 45 minutes on a Saturday arvo. Harness plugged straight in on my Series 3 — zero issues. Wireless CarPlay connected first go and the screen is genuinely bright enough for direct sunlight. Best mod I've done to the Patrol."
★★★★★
"Running the Premium 2K in my ZD30. The screen clarity is exceptional — makes the old factory unit look embarrassing. Set up Hema offline maps before our Simpson trip and it didn't miss a beat. The 46-page guide made the install straightforward."
★★★★★
"Already told three mates to get one. Plug and play is exactly what it says — I'm not a car audio guy and I had no problems. Reverse camera carries over perfectly and the OBD2 integration is a bonus I didn't know I wanted."
