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 Honda Civic, renowned worldwide for reliability, practicality and a rewarding driving dynamic, occupies a cherished place in automotive culture, particularly the fifth and sixth generation models produced from 1992 to 2000. Celebrated globally under a unified nameplate, the Civic has resonated strongly with diverse drivers across North America, Australia, Europe, and Asia, consistently praised for enduring quality, accessible performance, refined design, and a versatile personality adaptable from daily commuting to spirited drives.
Historical Evolution and Model Overview of the Honda Civic Series:
First Generation: 1972–1979
The Honda Civic first debuted as a compact and economical solution to rising fuel prices, demonstrating Honda's commitment to efficiency and affordability worldwide. Available as small hatchback or sedan, the first-generation Civic drew acclaim for fuel-efficient engines, clever packaging, and reliable mechanical simplicity. It rapidly paved the way for Honda's global reputation, gaining sizeable popularity as a reliable, economical choice during challenging economic climates around the world.
Second Generation: 1980–1983
Expanding the Civic's presence, Honda introduced more nuanced refinement, aerodynamic changes and updated engines during this period, further solidifying its market standing by balancing affordability and practicality. Civic evolved into a more mature, refined vehicle, increasingly appealing to younger families and urban motorists alike.
Third Generation: 1984–1987
The third-generation Civic saw substantial evolution: a variety of innovative engines—most notably the fuel-efficient CVCC units—alongside advancements in suspension technologies. Honda introduced sporty variants, like the Civic Si hatch, popularizing the notion of affordable performance, which appealed greatly to driving enthusiasts and contributed significantly to the Civic's dynamic, aspirational image.
Fourth Generation: 1988–1991
During this era, Civic matured significantly in design, comfort, and driving capability, broadening its global appeal. Fourth-generation models became known especially for sharp handling, responsive steering, and intuitive ergonomics, as well as introducing fuel-injected engines across most regions. These vehicles started to cultivate a loyal following within enthusiast communities around the world, thanks in large part to their balanced driving dynamics and accessible tuning potential.
Fifth Generation: 1992–1995 (EG / EH / EJ chassis)
The arrival of the fifth-generation Civic marked a turning point, solidifying Honda’s status in automotive history. Known informally as EG series (excluding certain markets which employed EH or EJ chassis descriptions), this generation was characterized by smooth, rounded styling with a sleeker aerodynamic silhouette. Offered in hatchback, sedan, and coupe body styles in markets like North America, Australia, and Europe, this Civic emphasized practicality without compromising driving engagement. Popular engines included the efficient yet lively D-series units and—for select markets—the respected B-series VTEC engines, famously delivering strong performance and fuel economy concurrently. The EG chassis quickly earned a reputation for excellent handling, compact agility, and reliability, becoming the embodiment of affordable automotive performance and customization across different territories.
Sixth Generation: 1996–2000 (EJ/EK/EM chassis)
Building upon an already successful formula, Honda’s sixth-generation Civic raised the standard of refinement, safety, and accessible performance. Recognizable by slightly more angular yet elegantly restrained styling, models like the EK hatchbacks, EJ coupes, and sedans became increasingly mainstream symbols of reliable everyday transportation but continued enjoying devoted enthusiasm among automotive circles due to substantial performance credibility. Signature models such as the EK9 Civic Type R—exclusive to the Japanese market—have achieved legendary status, admired globally for spirited driving characteristics and precise, engaging responses, epitomizing Honda’s dedication to high-performance engineering matched with functional compact design. Simultaneously, North American, European, and Australian variants emphasized dependability, affordability, and broad appeal, firmly embedding Civic’s position at the heart of everyday motoring needs.
