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 Ford Everest occupies a revered place in Ford's international lineup, standing as a substantial symbol of capability, practicality, and family-friendly luxury within the global SUV segment. To truly appreciate the 2015-2017 UA series Everest, it is valuable to reflect on the heritage and progression of this distinctive vehicle from its humble beginnings to its current prominence and versatility.
Historical Evolution of the Ford Everest:
First Generation Ford Everest (U268; 2003-2006):
The Everest's journey commenced in 2003, originating primarily for the Asian markets—initially appearing in countries such as Thailand, the Philippines, India, and Vietnam. Derived from the dependable Ranger pickup truck platform, this early version prioritized durability, robustness, and off-road prowess. While built firmly upon a truck-based chassis, the first Everest delivered dependable comfort and practicality suited for families and adventurers alike, strengthening Ford's presence in these growing markets.
First Generation Mid-Cycle Update (2007-2015):
In 2007, the Everest saw significant refinements, modernizing its exterior aesthetics and improving cabin comfort and sophistication. Mechanical enhancements provided smoother handling, increased ride refinement, and upgraded comfort features. Its steadfast diesel engines created a reputation for reliable torque delivery and excellent fuel economy, underpinning its increasing regional appeal as a sturdy and capable family SUV.
Second Generation (UA; 2015-2017):
The UA Everest, introduced in 2015, marked a milestone transformation for the Everest line-up, thoroughly expanding its global standing. Moving upmarket substantially, the Everest UA transitioned to a more refined, family-oriented large SUV without compromising its inherent off-road ability and durability. Underpinned by the T6 platform shared with the Ranger PX series, the UA brought significant enhancements—unibody comfort merged seamlessly with frame-built toughness. Its robust, purposeful exterior styling and sophisticated cabin established it as a distinctive and genuinely global competitor—notably popular in Australia, South Africa, Southeast Asia, and selected international markets.
Key attributes of the Everest UA included powerful diesel engines—particularly the celebrated 3.2-liter Duratorq five-cylinder engine—and variants equipped with Ford's intelligent Terrain Management system, allowing drivers to effortlessly adapt vehicle settings across diverse off-road conditions. On-road stability, sophisticated suspension tuning, advanced noise reduction, and smooth automatic transmissions significantly elevated driving refinement over prior generations. Inside, impressive comfort features and intuitive technology boasted modern conveniences like SYNC 2 infotainment, hands-free functionality, rear-view camera, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keeping technologies, firmly situating the Everest UA as a highly intuitive yet capable family SUV.
Complementing the Ford Everest Experience with Brummstadt:
While factory-installed technology initially met market expectations, technological progress has swiftly moved onward. To meet contemporary standards and driver demands, owners have increasingly considered upgraded infotainment units such as those offered by Brummstadt—a trusted provider recognized for purpose-built compatibility and mindful technological advancement.
Brummstadt provides advancements tailored explicitly to models such as the Ford Everest UA. Their attractive aftermarket head units present powerful productivity, convenience, and entertainment advantages, combined with straightforward integration designed specifically for the dashboard architecture and wiring harness of the Everest UA.
Among key highlights is the head unit’s complete compatibility with wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Imagine a seamless, hassle-free scenario where drivers finish a pleasant dinner with family members, casually setting key directions to the next location via smartphones through Google Maps, Apple Maps, or WAZE. Upon entering the vehicle, maps and navigation details transition smoothly to the intuitive head unit display without complicated manual adjustments, ensuring an effortless, comfortable, and relaxed travel experience.
Furthermore, the Brummstadt head unit offers support for optional high-definition (1080p) front and rear camera packages with integrated recording capability. This feature provides essential visibility, practical parking assistance, and invaluable documentation capability for unforeseen events—adding tangible safety benefits and valuable peace of mind to every journey.
Entertainment and connectivity options expand into passenger enjoyment as well. Integrated USB ports facilitate the connection of gaming controllers, creating entertaining multiplayer gaming opportunities directly on the head unit screen, converting monotonous travel periods into engaging, lively entertainment sessions for passengers during longer excursions.
An additional significant advantage of modern connectivity is voice-activated functionality. Utilizing widely familiar voice assistants—such as Siri or Google Assistant—drivers retain complete, distraction-free management of navigation, communication, and music playback, as well as convenient interaction with external smart-home devices. Simple voice requests such as "Hey Siri! Switch on the porch lighting" provide reassuring flexibility, security, and convenience seamlessly integrated into everyday routines, illustrating genuine contemporary connectivity usefulness.
Advantages and Key Characteristics of the Everest UA Series:
The 2015-2017 UA generation contributed to the Everest's excellent reputation by offering exceptional road comfort without sacrificing its legacy of remarkable resilience, capability, and off-road prowess. This generation successfully blended proven, purposeful exterior styling and robust frame structures with refined interior appointments, plush seat designs, generous cabin space, and precise engineering refinement that exceeded consumer expectations. Improved suspension performance combined effortlessly with distinctly quieter, calmer cabin experiences—allowing driver and passenger relaxation even over extended travel durations.
Upgraded infotainment features presented intuitive and user-friendly cabin technology designed with families and frequent travelers in mind. Together with advanced driver-assistance technologies, comprehensive safety innovations, and the impressive off-road adaptability enabled by thorough and proven Terrain Management systems, these attributes enhanced the everyday utility, convenience, and exploration possibilities for drivers.
Furthermore, supplementing factory-standard specifications with strategically selected enhancements—such as the Brummstadt head unit—is increasingly common amongst owners. This leads directly to greater personalization, convenience, and enjoyment, translating into deeper satisfaction and a richer ownership experience as part of modern life’s routines and adventures.
Considered holistically, the Ford Everest UA 2015-2017 represents a significant evolution within its vehicle segment—not only matching emerging expectations but exceeding many. Continual improvement upon technology and driving comfort, increased sophistication, and relentless preservation of fundamental rugged capability has made the Everest UA a compellingly versatile platform, equally at home in urban environments as in remote explorations. Adding advanced aftermarket support like Brummstadt’s technology deepens this inherent versatility, matching demands for intelligent adaptability with carefully considered convenience, safety, and pure driving enjoyment.
