A: AKVW12 is installation kit only (fascia, harnesses, adapters) designed for customers purchasing 9-inch trapezoid head units separately from Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, or Android manufacturers. AMAVW12/AMAVW13 are complete kits bundling specific AM9X receiver with all integration components. AKVW12 provides flexibility in head unit brand selection while AMAVW12/AMAVW13 offer integrated solution with guaranteed head unit compatibility. Choose AKVW12 when you already own or prefer specific brand's trapezoid head unit, choose AMAVW12/AMAVW13 for complete bundled solution. Q: Will AKVW12 work with standard DIN or double DIN head units? A: No, AKVW12 designed exclusively for universal trapezoid shaped 9-inch head units with standardized trapezoid mounting footprint. Standard single DIN or double DIN head units require different fascia kits with appropriate mounting dimensions. Trapezoid format features distinctive angled sides and specific mounting pattern different from rectangular DIN formats. Verify your head unit features trapezoid shape matching compatible models listed (Alpine AW409S/AX809, Kenwood DMX80AXS, Pioneer AP6650BT, or similar trapezoid Android units) before purchasing AKVW12. Q: How do I configure Pioneer head units with AKVW12 for steering wheel controls? A: AKVW12 does not support Pioneer CAN Bus features. For Pioneer head units, do NOT select 'CAN Bus Adapter' option during initial setup. Instead, navigate to Menu > Steering Wheel Control > select 'With Adapter' option. This configures Pioneer head unit to receive steering wheel control signals through included Infolink adapter rather than attempting direct CAN Bus integration. Follow Pioneer head unit's steering wheel control learning procedure to program button functions ensuring proper operation of volume, track skip, phone, and voice control buttons. Q: What is APP8 adapter and do I need it for my installation? A: APP8 adapters are Aerpro aftermarket head unit harness adapters converting brand-specific head unit connectors to standardized format compatible with AKVW12 harnesses. APP8 adapter requirement depends on specific head unit model's connector type - some head units may require APP8 adapter for electrical connection while others connect directly. Consult head unit manufacturer specifications or contact Frankie's Auto Electrics with specific head unit model for APP8 adapter requirement verification. APP8 compatibility simplifies wiring by standardizing electrical interface across different head unit brands. Q: Which factory features actually work depends on my chosen head unit? A: Feature retention depends on specific aftermarket head unit's capabilities and integration support. AKVW12 provides hardware interface (harnesses, fascia, adapters) but actual feature functionality requires head unit software support. For example, steering wheel controls require head unit accepting SWC adapter input; climate visualization requires head unit displaying vehicle CAN Bus data; parking sensors require head unit processing OPS signals. Verify chosen head unit specifications confirm support for desired features including steering wheel controls, climate display, parking sensors, and factory amplifier compatibility before purchase ensuring complete feature retention matching expectations.Legendary Products & Support From Authorized Dealers When you choose Frankies BrandBeast, you're choosing quality and performance.

Steering wheel control retention preserves all factory button functions including volume, track skip, voice commands, and phone controls through the included harness—eliminates the frustration of losing convenient steering wheel operation when upgrading to aftermarket head units, maintaining the OEM driving experience. Factory reverse camera preservation through the included retention adapter ensures the existing Volkswagen rear-view camera continues functioning with the new head unit—critical for commercial operators with reversing safety requirements, families relying on parking assistance, and maintaining ADR compliance in applicable vehicles. Universal 9" and 10" trapezoid compatibility works with Alpine's popular iLX-AW409S and iLX-AX809 (both 9" and 10" variants), Kenwood DMX80AXS, Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT, Nakamichi's full Android head unit range, and generic aftermarket Android receivers—provides maximum head unit selection flexibility across different brands, feature sets, and budgets.

The FXVW5K2 is a complete installation kit including fascia panel, steering wheel control retention harness, reverse camera retention adapter, and radio antenna adapter. Fascia-only options require purchasing these components separately. This all-in-one kit ensures compatibility and simplifies sourcing. Does this work with both 9" and 10" head units? Yes, the FXVW5K2 accommodates universal trapezoid 9" and 10" head units. Use with 9" units like Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT or Kenwood DMX80AXS, or larger 10" units like Alpine's iLX-AW409S-10 or iLX-AX809-10 variants. The trapezoid aperture design fits both screen sizes. Will my steering wheel controls continue working? Yes, the included steering wheel control retention harness preserves all factory button functions including volume, track skip, voice commands, and phone controls. The harness connects between your Volkswagen's factory wiring and the new head unit, maintaining full functionality. Can I install this myself or do I need a professional? The plug-and-play design enables DIY installation for mechanically-inclined owners with basic tools. However, professional installation ensures correct harness connections, proper fascia fitment, and verification that all retained features (steering wheel controls, camera, antenna) function correctly after installation. Does this fit all Volkswagen models? No, this kit specifically fits Amarok 2017-2022, Caddy 2015-2020, Crafter 2017+, Multivan 2016-2019, Tiguan 2015-2016, and Transporter 2016-2019 only. Other Volkswagen models have different dashboard architectures requiring specific kits. Verify your vehicle model and year before purchasing.

Complete plug-and-play fascia kit for pre-2017 Volkswagen passenger and commercial models Product Overview The CAC FXVW5K1 is a comprehensive 9" fascia installation kit designed for pre-2017 Volkswagen models (2004-2016) featuring trapezoid-shaped factory dash apertures. This complete kit includes the fascia panel, steering wheel control retention harness, and radio antenna adapter—eliminating the need to source multiple components separately and ensuring all elements are engineered to work together seamlessly. Compatible with eighteen different Volkswagen models spanning passenger cars, SUVs, and commercial vans from 2004-2016, this kit accommodates universal trapezoid 9" and 10" head units from Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, Nakamichi, and aftermarket Android systems. The plug-and-play design connects directly to factory wiring, maintaining steering wheel controls and radio antenna integration while enabling wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and modern navigation features across Volkswagen's extensive pre-2017 vehicle lineup including Golf MK5/MK6, Polo, Passat, Amarok, Tiguan, Transporter, and many others. Key Specifications Multi-vehicle fitment: 18 VW models (2004-2016) including Golf MK5/MK6, Polo, Passat, Amarok, Tiguan, Transporter, Caddy, Jetta, and more Screen size accommodation: Universal trapezoid 9" and 10" head units Complete kit includes: Fascia panel + steering wheel control harness + radio antenna adapter Compatible head units: Alpine AW409S/AX809, Kenwood DMX80AXS, Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT, Nakamichi Android systems, aftermarket Android receivers Manufacturer: Car Audio Connect (CAC) Part number: FXVW5K1 Installation type: Plug-and-play with factory wiring integration Retained features: Steering wheel controls, radio antenna Year coverage: Pre-2017 models (2004-2016 depending on vehicle) Material: Injection-moulded fascia with OEM-style finish Features & Benefits Complete kit eliminates multi-component sourcing by bundling fascia panel, steering wheel control retention harness, and antenna adapter together—saves time tracking down individual parts, ensures compatibility between components, and reduces installation complexity common with piecing together solutions from multiple suppliers. Extensive 18-model Volkswagen coverage spans passenger vehicles (Golf MK5/MK6, Polo, Passat, Jetta, Beetle, CC, EOS, Scirocco, up!), SUVs (Tiguan, Touareg), and commercial vehicles (Amarok, Transporter, Caddy, Caravelle, Multivan)—enables consistent installations across mixed family fleets or provides upgrade paths for aging Volkswagen vehicles purchased before modern smartphone integration became standard. Pre-2017 generation focus specifically targets earlier Volkswagen models (2004-2016) with dashboard architectures predating the 2017+ design refresh—essential distinction ensuring customers with older-generation VW vehicles purchase the correct kit rather than the newer FXVW5K2 designed for 2015-2022 models with different dash geometry. Plug-and-play factory integration connects directly to existing Volkswagen wiring without cutting, splicing, or permanent modifications—maintains vehicle warranty on applicable models, simplifies DIY installation, and ensures clean professional results that preserve factory electrical integrity and future serviceability. Steering wheel control retention preserves all factory button functions including volume, track skip, voice commands, and phone controls through the included harness—eliminates frustration of losing convenient steering wheel operation when upgrading aging head units in vehicles like Golf MK5/MK6, Polo, or Passat. Universal 9" and 10" trapezoid compatibility works with Alpine's popular iLX-AW409S and iLX-AX809 (both 9" and 10" variants), Kenwood DMX80AXS, Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT, Nakamichi's full Android head unit range, and generic aftermarket Android receivers—provides maximum head unit selection flexibility across brands, features, and budgets. OEM-style fascia finish matches factory dashboard aesthetics across Volkswagen's grey/black interior trim common throughout the 2004-2016 model range—maintains clean factory appearance valued by enthusiasts, families, and commercial operators where visible aftermarket modifications may impact resale value. Nakamichi Android system compatibility specifically supports Car Audio Connect's proprietary Nakamichi CAN-bus integrated Android receivers designed for pre-2017 Volkswagen applications—enables advanced vehicle integration including climate control display, multi-function steering wheel support, and digital instrument cluster information on-screen.

The FXVW5K1 is designed for pre-2017 Volkswagen models (2004-2016) and includes fascia, steering wheel control harness, and antenna adapter. The FXVW5K2 is for 2015-2022 models with updated dashboard architecture and additionally includes reverse camera retention adapter. Verify your vehicle's year and model before selecting. Does this include reverse camera retention? No, the FXVW5K1 does not include reverse camera retention adapter. Many pre-2017 Volkswagen models in this kit's compatibility range did not come standard with factory reverse cameras. If your vehicle has a factory camera requiring retention, you may need an additional adapter purchased separately. Which Golf generation does this fit? The FXVW5K1 fits Golf MK5 (2004-2009) and Golf MK6 (2009-2013) only. Later Golf MK7 (2013+) requires different fascia solutions due to updated dashboard architecture. Verify your Golf's generation before purchasing—check build date or VIN if uncertain. Will my steering wheel controls continue working? Yes, the included steering wheel control retention harness preserves all factory button functions including volume, track skip, voice commands, and phone controls. The harness connects between your Volkswagen's factory wiring and the new head unit, maintaining full functionality across all compatible models. Does this work with both 9" and 10" head units? Yes, the FXVW5K1 accommodates universal trapezoid 9" and 10" head units. Use with 9" units like Pioneer DMH-AP6650BT or Kenwood DMX80AXS, or larger 10" units like Alpine's iLX-AW409S-10 or iLX-AX809-10 variants. The trapezoid aperture design fits both screen sizes.
