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 Great Wall Steed has gained distinction internationally as a capable, value-oriented, and practical pickup, reflecting Great Wall Motors' bid to capture global attention with accessible features, reliability, and versatility. Before exploring the notable characteristics of the Steed produced between 2012 and 2019, it is worthwhile to trace the journey that has brought this pickup model to its current iteration.
Evolution and Heritage of the Great Wall Steed:
1. Origins & Early Models—Great Wall Deer and Sailor (1996–2006):
The roots of the Great Wall Steed trace back to the manufacturer's early ventures into the robust and competitive pickup market. Debuting famously as the "Great Wall Deer," this initial pickup gained rapid popularity within its domestic Chinese market and subsequently abroad, notably in Australia and South Africa. Affordable pricing, robust construction, and straightforward mechanical reliability positioned it exceptionally well among budget-conscious buyers seeking practicality and usability. The Deer model, complemented by the "Sailor," emphasized simplicity, ruggedness, and cost-effective operation, collectively laying steady foundations for global growth.
2. Transition to Wingle Nameplate and Early International Success (2006–2011):
In 2006, Great Wall Motors replaced the Deer with the "Wingle", a model better engineered to cater broadly to international appeal. Enhanced quality standards, significant cabin improvements, modernized design cues, and upgraded drivetrains characterized this transitional generation. The Wingle, known in various markets as the "V-Series" or simply "Great Wall Pickup," firmly established a foothold outside China, receiving special attention in markets including Australia, South America, Africa, and Europe, primarily for durable build quality, affordability, robust payloads, and diesel engine efficiency.
3. Great Wall Steed/Wingle 5 Series—International Maturity (2012–2019):
The period spanning 2012 until 2019 marked the official naming of "Steed" within Australia, the UK, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, and much of Europe, while retaining the "Wingle 5" title domestically in China and within select Asian, South American, and Middle Eastern markets. During this phase, the model reached newfound maturity and global leadership from Great Wall Motors. The Steed effectively combined inherited toughness with better-in-class refinement, improved styling, and upgraded practicality.
The Steed was significantly praised for its traditional yet acceptable aesthetics, robust chassis, and toughness intended for rural and utility-oriented roles. Impressive payload capacities, adequate ground clearance, and sturdy suspension systems equipped it perfectly for work environments across diverse terrains. It quickly gained loyal customers, from commercial applications in agriculture and trade to outdoor leisure enthusiasts seeking an affordable, straightforward 4x4 capability.
Notably, this generation saw a substantial interior refinement aimed at elevating driver and passenger comfort and ergonomics. The introduction of air conditioning, improved fabric upholstery options, adequate cabin storage compartments, and upgraded sound insulation represented considerable advances. However, factory infotainment and radio systems were minimalistic by design, often leaving buyers yearning for contemporary technology, connectivity, and entertainment features readily available on newer vehicles within the same segment.
Integrating Advanced Infotainment Solutions by Brummstadt:
Addressing these technological limitations and aligning customer expectations with contemporary automotive standards, Brummstadt provides a specially curated premium head unit explicitly tailored as a compatible solution for the 2012–2019 Great Wall Steed series. This head unit adeptly combines modern smartphone integration infrastructure—wired and wireless support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto—ensuring drivers easily access preferred apps, personalized music libraries, podcasts, and telephone features directly through the intuitive, clear touchscreen interface.
Consider the scenario of leisurely dining with family, the warm atmosphere subtly shifting toward extending the evening's enjoyment at a friend's residence. Quickly setting the friend's address on a smartphone, occupants discover that the navigation instantly appears mirrored directly through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, appearing clearly on the upgraded head unit's vibrant touchscreen display. The seamless transition brings confident and relaxed navigation, eliminating stress or confusion during the journey—even through congestion or unfamiliar routes.
Additionally, owners may opt for integrating high-definition front and rear cameras, supporting 1080p quality recording. Such camera setups serve both safety and convenience by significantly expanding the driver's visibility and offering reliable recorded evidence essential for accident documentation or security purposes. Beyond that, the head unit ingeniously provides family-friendly entertainment options accessible on the road by supporting direct connection of game controllers via integrated USB ports, creating engaging shared experiences on longer journeys.
This innovative unit further advances practicality and convenience with advanced smart voice control features. Leveraging voice assistants like Siri or Google Assistant permits intuitive management of entertainment playback, navigation guidance, or communications, significantly expanding convenience without distraction. Drivers can even utilize smart home device commands, like remotely instructing, "Hey Siri, turn on the lounge lights," upon arrival home, allowing thoughtful integration of mobile connectivity into daily domestic routines.
Advantages and Ownership Satisfaction:
The 2012–2019 Great Wall Steed/Wingle offers considerable strengths, often highlighted through its core aspiration toward tough utility capability at attainable price points. Robustly engineered suspension, reliable and efficient diesel or petrol engine variants, practical load management solutions, and easy-to-maintain mechanics combine effectively, becoming primary reasons for buyers' continuing appreciation globally.
Through the addition of thoughtfully selected improvements—such as contemporary infotainment integration through precisely tailored aftermarket solutions—the inherent appeal of the Great Wall Steed is expanded practically and experientially. Drivers benefit from greatly improved day-to-day usability, practical safety augmentation, interactive road trip entertainment for passengers, convenient everyday smart relationship management with technology, and an improved general driving atmosphere.
In summary, the Great Wall Steed represents a value-oriented and practical pickup realized through successive generations of consistent refinement, adaptability, and globally-embraced reliability. Complemented with thoughtfully selected aftermarket technological improvements such as Brummstadt's carefully developed infotainment options, it becomes exemplarily equipped for contemporary demands without compromising essential dependability—effectively enriching owner satisfaction, comfort, functionality, and confidence on every journey.
