After install, I noticed there are some plugs that don't seem to plug in anywhere. Did I get the wrong harness?
No, it is normal to have plugs left over from your old stereo if upgrading to a Brummstadt head unit. The unit comes with its own components and antennas (GPS, 4G, microphone), so some factory plugs are simply not needed anymore. No need to worry. All core functions will work as intended. If anything doesn’t perform as expected, you can always reach out to our customer support by clicking here Chat with Human Support or send an email to service@brummstadt.com.au. -
Why isn't my factory camera working with your unit?
Our cables are made to work with factory cameras, but sometimes they just don't. Some cameras work straight out of the box. Others may need a 12V to 6V step-down module or a different plug. In any case, contact our support team. We will help you find the right solution. -
What if something doesn't work during install?
This is our promise to you. We stand not only for quality in product but also quality in after-sales support. While there may be many alternatives out there, the true value shows when it comes to replacements or product questions. We are here to help until everything works exactly as it should. -
Can I use the reverse camera while driving forward?
Yes, absolutely possible. If you only have the rear camera installed or are using your original factory camera, you can add a rocker switch to activate it while in drive. Just keep in mind that this is not plug and play and does require some basic wiring knowledge. A more convenient option is to use both our front and rear cameras, which are powered directly through the head unit. You can switch between them anytime, view both at once and even watch them while driving. This is especially useful for towing, caravans and off-road use. -
Can I install a front camera and view it anytime, even while driving?
Yes, absolutely. You can view both front and rear anytime, whether parked or driving. For more advanced setups, you can install multiple additional cameras using rocker switches or modified RCA inputs and switch between them freely. This requires high installation skill and is not plug and play, while with our front and rear camera setup it is plug and play. -
Do your units support steering wheel controls?
Yes, absolutely. Steering wheel buttons are supported. Sometimes they work immediately after installation. Sometimes you configure them in the steering wheel app on the head unit. The process is simple: press the icon on the screen, press the button on your steering wheel, and assign the function. You can map any function to any button. For vehicles with more advanced ECUs, we supply CANbus modules. In those cases, you just select your car model inside the CAN app and it will sync automatically. Should anything be unclear or if you need help with setup, feel free to Chat with Human Support or email us at service@brummstadt.com.au.

The Suzuki Jimny occupies a distinct niche in the automotive landscape, cherished worldwide for its compact footprint, legendary off-road capability, and charismatic personality. With its timeless, boxy design, the Jimny embodies a lineage defined by impressive agility, practicality, and straightforward engineering. Appreciating the 2018-2022 Jimny model fully involves exploring its heritage, evolution, and ongoing global appeal.
Historical Journey of the Suzuki Jimny:
First Generation – Suzuki Jimny LJ (1970 - 1981):
The original Suzuki Jimny LJ series, debuting in 1970, introduced the automotive world to a distinctive formula. Compact dimensions, low weight, and uncomplicated mechanicals positioned it as an affordable off-road vehicle capable of navigating tight spaces, dense forests, and rugged terrains that larger vehicles struggled to access. In Japan, the LJ series known domestically as the Jimny grew rapidly popular among rural communities and outdoor enthusiasts, offering straightforward transportation and remarkable durability. Overseas, in markets such as Australia and Southeast Asia, it earned the moniker Suzuki Sierra, establishing early recognition as a reliable and approachable off-road companion.
Second Generation – Suzuki Jimny SJ (SJ410 & SJ413) (1981 - 1998):
In the early 1980s, the SJ series expanded the Jimny’s appeal globally. Better known as the "Samurai" in North America, this series encapsulated a much broader market presence, particularly across the United States, Europe, and Australia. Rugged, utilitarian, and highly affordable, the Samurai built a sizable following highlighted by its remarkable versatility and robust off-road prowess. Its compact dimensions and ease of ownership made it appealing not just among off-road hobbyists but as urban transportation that could explore weekends away from city limits. Many markets, including Australia and parts of Europe, simply knew this solid performer as the Suzuki Sierra or simply SJ413—names now deeply etched in automotive nostalgia.
Third Generation – Suzuki Jimny JB (1998 - 2018):
Launched in 1998, the third-generation JB-era Jimny took a significant leap forward in refinement, everyday usability, and international distribution. Maintaining compact proportions and impressive off-road credentials, this Jimny offered notable upgrades to creature comforts, drivetrain refinement, enhanced suspension systems, and modern safety provisions. Globally, it consolidated multiple prior market-specific variants into a cleaner, universally recognizable identity as the Jimny. With resilient, economical engines and properly engineered four-wheel-drive capabilities, this generation carved an enduring following globally. Across Australia, Asia, Latin America, and Europe, the Jimny became universally respected for outstanding simplicity, remarkable capability, and proven reliability.
Fourth Generation – Suzuki Jimny JB74 (2018 - Current):
The 2018-2022 Jimny represents Suzuki’s thoughtful evolution of a classic, timeless vehicle formula. Its unmistakable, boxy silhouette pays direct homage to earlier Jimny models, successfully reminiscent of beloved predecessors while infusing purposeful modernity. Despite increased refinement, technology, and safety enhancements, it carefully preserves and optimizes the hallmark simplicity, rugged mechanical layout, and superior off-road capabilities Jimny fans expect.
Available across diverse global regions—Australia, Europe, Japan, and Asian markets—the JB74 Jimny maintains consistency in naming, design, and engine choices, uniting global admirers under a singular, recognizable banner. Power comes from Suzuki's compact yet capable 1.5-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine, paired with an efficient and sturdy four-wheel-drive system offering selectable modes (2H, 4H, and 4L). Engineered for genuine off-road conditions, its ladder-frame chassis, short wheelbase, generous approach, departure angles, and live axle suspension articulate toughness and dependability proven over decades.
Brummstadt Infotainment Solutions and Integration Possibilities:

Imagine an effortless scenario where after finishing dinner at a local restaurant, the next destination—perhaps a friend’s home—is already preselected on a mobile device. Upon returning to the vehicle, directions dynamically sync to the head unit's touchscreen without requiring physical handling of the phone. Such an integration affirms smooth transitions and peace of mind during busy schedules or late-night travels.
Optional upgrades include fully integrated 1080p HD front and rear recording-capable cameras, substantially elevating situational awareness, driving safety, and providing essential incident documentation if required. This upgrade is particularly valuable when adventuring to remote trails or exploring urban streets, enhancing drivers' confidence in various environments.
This advanced infotainment system creatively accommodates additional entertainment options: multiplayer gaming through joystick connectivity via integrated USB ports. Entertaining passengers becomes effortless, offering engaging gaming diversions on longer journeys, transforming traditional mundane drives into memorable experiences shared among family or friends.
Smart, intuitive voice control facilitates safer driving management, positioning effortless media playback control, seamless navigation operation, and hands-free communications at the driver's command. Beyond in-vehicle convenience, voice assistant compatibility (Siri, Google Assistant) opens potential integration with connected home devices. Drivers might conveniently request porch lighting activation upon approaching their home—such practical application showcases thoughtful connectivity harmonizing seamlessly with modern lifestyles.
