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 Fiesta occupies a unique place within automotive culture, universally admired for its agile dynamics, clever engineering, compact practicality, and attractive styling. Born as a response to the increasing demand for economical, versatile, and reliable small cars, the Fiesta has etched an endearing narrative across global markets, captivating drivers across Europe, America, Asia, and Australia. Tracing its heritage through various evolutions will highlight its sustained appeal and significance.
A Historical Perspective of the Ford Fiesta’s Legacy:
First Generation (MkI – 1976 to 1983)
Originating in Europe during the mid-70s, the Fiesta debuted as a fuel-efficient supermini urging consumers towards smaller, urban-oriented vehicle solutions amidst rising oil prices. Ford’s foray quickly charmed many with its practicality, nimble handling, economic fuel consumption, and affordable ownership, establishing itself promptly as one of Europe's favourite small vehicles.
Second Generation (MkII – 1983 to 1989)
Ford further refined styling, interior comfort, and driving characteristics, with subtle yet impactful enhancements in technologies and materials. The MkII Fiesta was warmly embraced thanks to its enhanced drivability, straightforward design, and improved ride comfort, ensuring consistent sales success.
Third Generation (MkIII – 1989 to 1997)
The MkIII represented a substantial shift, offering an enlarged body with enhanced interior space, greater refinement, and the introduction of advanced engine technologies. In addition to its popularity in Europe and the UK, this iteration reliably served emerging markets, further strengthening the Fiesta’s international presence.
Fourth Generation (MkIV / MkV – 1995 to 2002)
The Fiesta matured considerably during this period, offering improved safety features, comfort-oriented interiors, Euro-NCAP tested structural advancements, and engines refined for economy and reliability. Both family-oriented buyers and younger drivers found welcome gains in experimenting with urban manoeuvrability matched by highway cruising ease.
Fifth Generation (MkVI – 2002 to 2008)
This era reasserted Fiesta’s characteristic vigor, agility, and everyday versatility with sharper exterior lines, markedly upgraded cabin finishes, and responsive drivetrain evolutions. Selling globally—including notably strong demand across Australia and Europe—this model consolidated a relationship with young urban drivers, reinforcing its reputation as compact, affordable, and enjoyable transportation.
Sixth Generation (MkVII – WS, WT, WZ Series: 2008 to 2018)
The sixth-generation Fiesta marked a comprehensive reinvention, emerging as one of Ford’s most celebrated small cars worldwide, bearing designations WS, WT, and WZ in Australian and Asia-Pacific markets. Stepping ahead significantly in design and engineering, this generation brought forth fluid styling embodying Ford’s "Kinetic Design" language—reflected prominently through swept-back headlights, pronounced wheel arches, and a dynamic profile. A refined interior enhanced by premium materials, inspired ergonomics, and stylish displays represented dramatic leaps forward in cabin appointment.
Driving enthusiasts worldwide particularly admired its class-leading dynamics backed by agile chassis engineering, precision steering, and comfort-oriented suspensions. Engine choices—most notably Ford’s fuel-efficient yet peppy EcoBoost offerings—earned accolades for power-to-weight efficiency, practicality, and reduced environmental emissions. This generation also distinguished itself through market-specific variations. North American markets, for example, enjoyed trim and engine offerings tailored distinctly from European and Australian counterparts—reflecting market-driven preferences for comfort or sporty performance.
