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 Toyota Kluger, marketed as the Highlander in North America and the Kluger in Australia and Japan, has become recognized globally for its comfortable ride, spacious interior, practical design, and balanced blend of performance and family-friendly features. Understanding the 2000 to 2007 first-generation Toyota Kluger involves exploring its origins, its distinctive attributes, and appreciating the thoughtful design that has solidified its enduring popularity among international drivers.
Historical Context and Evolution:
First Generation (XU20 - 2000-2007):
Debuting in 2000, the Toyota Kluger—called Toyota Highlander in America—was among the pioneers of midsize crossover SUVs, ushering in a new generation of vehicles combining sedan-like handling, spaciousness, and higher road position. Built on Toyota’s adaptable Camry platform, the Kluger offered a more composed, car-like driving experience when compared with traditional, truck-based SUVs of its era.
Initially introduced with a refined and smooth 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine or a more powerful 3.0-litre V6 engine, it provided a selection of drivetrain options including front-wheel and available all-wheel-drive systems. The car-based unibody design gave it exceptional on-road manners, reduced noise, and passenger comfort more typical of sedans, attributes that quickly made it popular among families and commuters alike. The mid-cycle facelift in 2004 brought minor exterior refinements, enhanced engine offerings—a more potent yet efficient 3.3-litre V6—and additions in interior comfort and safety features, further increasing its appeal.
Drivers admired the Kluger for its practicality: its flexible seating arrangements, ample cargo space, reliability, and smooth ride quality stood out among comparably sized rivals. Marketed as Kluger ("clever" or "intelligent" in German) in the robust Australian and Japanese landscapes, and as Highlander in North America, it attracted affection for practical luxury, low maintenance needs, and impressive reliability—traits central to Toyota’s global reputation.
Subsequent Generations (XU40, XU50, XU70 – 2007-Present):
Progressing through later generations, the Kluger/Highlander built upon the foundation laid by the original vehicle, adding significantly improved safety features, updated styling, powerful yet increasingly efficient engines—including hybrid powertrains—and comprehensive infotainment improvements. Nonetheless, the sensibly balanced formula introduced by the original XU20 series continued uninterrupted, cementing long-term loyalty and respect for the model.
Complementing the First-Generation Toyota Kluger with Modern Infotainment:
The original Kluger’s OEM audio and infotainment features, reflecting the standards of its era, lack certain modern capabilities. Choosing a well-suited head unit replacement resolves this gap and substantially invigorates the vehicle’s usability and entertainment quality. Brummstadt’s premium head unit, compatible with Kluger models from 2000 to 2007, is thoughtfully designed to integrate naturally into the original dashboard position, matching interior aesthetics without compromise or complicated installation processes.
With full Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration—both wired and wireless—this upgrade conveniently connects passengers’ smartphones directly to the vehicle, enriching driving experiences with intuitive access to music, calls, messaging, and a variety of navigation apps, including Google Maps, WAZE, and Apple Maps. Imagine travelers enjoying a leisurely dinner with friends or family, relaxing at the restaurant, and effortlessly inputting a destination into their smartphone navigation. Upon re-entering the vehicle, this route automatically appears seamlessly through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto directly onto the upgraded display—bringing stress-free navigation through unfamiliar streets and enhancing safety through minimal driver distraction.
An available enhancement option includes front and rear high-definition 1080p cameras with recording capabilities, significantly improving driver visibility, ensuring documentation of trips, and contributing positively towards driver confidence and peace of mind during travels.
Beyond its primary role, this head unit also serves as a versatile platform for passenger entertainment during longer journeys. Direct USB connectivity facilitates multiplayer gaming, allowing passengers to enjoy engaging interactive entertainment directly from the infotainment display, making travel an enjoyable family experience rather than just transit between destinations.
Additionally, the upgraded system hosts sophisticated voice assistant integration capabilities such as Siri or Google Assistant. Beyond standard voice-controlled tasks—incoming calls, music selection, and navigation guidance—the infotainment unit also smoothly integrates smart home interactions, providing instances where occupants comfortably initiate everyday tasks from their vehicle, such as activating home porch lights with simple voice commands en route—highlighting the convenience and refinement of a modern connected driving experience.
Intrinsic Benefits and Advantages:
The original Toyota Kluger earned respect with its solid build quality, dependable performance, ride refinement, practical family-oriented design, and affordability. A well-rounded midsize crossover SUV, it seamlessly combined sedan-level comfort with utility vehicle practicality. This combination laid the groundwork, enriching its legacy through subsequent models and securing appreciation worldwide.
Integrating contemporary infotainment technology sympathetically adds considerable value to the everyday driving and ownership experience. The upgraded multimedia system brings up-to-date connectivity, heightened navigation accuracy, improved convenience, and broader entertainment opportunities, substantially transforming the dynamics and pleasure derived from standard journeys and longer adventures. By thoughtfully addressing the Kluger’s limited original infotainment systems yet preserving its practical strengths, this thoughtful enhancement contributes meaningfully toward overall vehicle satisfaction and ownership pride.
In this manner, the 2000 to 2007 Toyota Kluger remains a respected and popular vehicle, celebrated for practicality, reliability, and comfort. The seamless pairing of sophisticated contemporary accessories—such as the Brummstadt premium infotainment head unit—revitalizes and refreshes the vehicle, keeping it relevant, enjoyable, and suited to contemporary lifestyles, well beyond its original vision.
