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 Land Rover Freelander, known globally as a compact SUV blending authentic off-road capability with urban sophistication, epitomizes an influential chapter in Land Rover's storied lineage. To appreciate the 2007-2012 Freelander model fully, it is essential to examine the SUV's broader historical evolution from inception to its role as a pioneer of luxury in the compact SUV market—a notable blend of versatility, prestige, and adventure-oriented spirit.
A Journey Through Freelander History:
First Generation Freelander (1997-2006)
Initially introduced in 1997, the first-generation Freelander marked Land Rover's dedicated foray into the compact SUV niche. Combining traditional Land Rover ruggedness and reliability with compact maneuverability and car-like refinement, the Freelander quickly carved out market success across Europe, Australia, Asia, and North America. This pioneering model offered an accessible entry point into the prestigious Land Rover brand, appealing to urban drivers seeking practicality alongside adventure-driven individuals looking for genuine off-road capabilities.
Introduced as the Freelander globally, it entered the North American market in 2001 under the same name, instantly captivating users due to its authentic capability coupled with sophisticated interior comfort. Notable features included a comfortable, ergonomic cabin, innovative Hill Descent Control (HDC), and distinctive design aesthetics reflective of Land Rover's heritage. Engine options varied across regions—from the popular Rover K-series engines in the United Kingdom and Asia, BMW-sourced turbodiesel engines in Europe and Australia, to a more robust V6 petrol version offered chiefly to American buyers.
Second Generation Freelander— Freelander 2 (2006-2014)
The Freelander 2 debuted at the 2006 British International Motor Show, beginning sales shortly thereafter for the 2007 model year globally. In North America, this revamped model transitioned naming conventions, marketed as the Land Rover LR2, aligning it more closely with its larger siblings (the LR3 and LR4 Discovery-badged SUVs). Throughout Europe, Australia, Asia, and other territories, it remained known as the Freelander 2.
Stepping significantly forward in refinement, luxury, build quality, and versatility, the Freelander 2 received considerable acclaim. It now showcased Land Rover's advanced Terrain Response system previously introduced in the premium segment, equipping the vehicle with multiple selectable driving modes facilitating improved off-road prowess. Remarkable improvements emerged regarding cabin refinement, quality materials, ergonomic design, and passenger comfort. Engine offerings notably expanded, with well-regarded diesel choices like the economic yet powerful TD4 diesel engine proving particularly popular across Australia, Europe, and Asia. A robust inline-six cylinder petrol engine, jointly developed with Volvo, found its way across global markets, notably loved for responsiveness, smooth performance, and assured driving experience.
Freelander 2 models became equally placed in sophisticated urban environments and challenging rural excursions, a blend accentuated further by appealing exterior design—redefined lines, assertive grille styling, and undeniable road presence. User-friendly technologies accompanied luxury refinements, featuring upgraded navigation units and connectivity options enhancing daily usability significantly.
Valuable Infotainment Integration:
Acknowledging the Freelander's blend of off-road ability and urban refinement, the availability of aftermarket infotainment head units from Brummstadt emerges as a compelling complement. Specifically designed to harmonize seamlessly within the Freelander 2's dashboard architecture, these head units represent a forward-thinking option bringing contemporary connectivity and important passenger comfort features to match the Freelander’s overall sophistication.
Brummstadt’s head units offer users powerful multimedia advancements—integrating substantial wired and wireless compatibility for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Connectivity conveniences make the driving and navigation experience intuitive—passengers can effortlessly utilize trusted smartphone apps such as Google Maps, Apple Maps, and WAZE directly from their pocket device to the vehicle’s head unit. For instance, a leisurely dining evening can transition smoothly into visiting friends nearby: a destination initially set through one's smartphone automatically transfers and displays vividly through either Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, simplifying late-night travel planning and reducing driver effort.
Further boosting practical safety levels, these infotainment units accommodate optional upgrades to high-definition 1080p front and rear cameras featuring dedicated recording capabilities. Such features augment visibility, driving awareness, and a heightened sense of security—beneficial across diverse driving scenarios, drastically reducing blind spots both in tight urban confines and off-road conditions alike.
In addition, the head unit’s functionality extends into impressive entertainment potentials. Built-in USB access allows passengers to plug gaming controllers directly into the system, transforming lengthy or uninspired journeys into lively multiplayer gaming sessions displayed vividly on-screen, enhancing passenger engagement and satisfaction on extended rides.
Thoughtful smart home integration also comes effortlessly through simplified voice interaction features. With built-in support for assistants like Apple's Siri and Google's Voice Assistant, users conveniently initiate navigation, media playback, messaging features, and even control connected home electronics directly via voice command—imagine approaching home comfortably at night and activating porch lighting remotely with a simple, convenient speech prompt, demonstrating how modern automotive infotainment thoughtfully interweaves with everyday convenience and comfort.
Overall Driving Advantages of the Freelander 2007–2012:
The Freelander 2 impressively maintains Land Rover’s acclaimed character—recognized widely across multiple international markets for its balance between luxury refinement and genuine off-road prowess. Its sophisticated Terrain Response, precise chassis control, powerful engine performance, and thoughtful, ergonomic design offer distinct appeal, providing genuinely rewarding driving experiences whether traversing busy city avenues or challenging wilderness landscapes.
