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 Mazda CX-5 represents a compelling intersection of contemporary innovation, refined styling, and dynamic driving qualities, particularly evident in the 2015 to 2017 model lineup. As a vehicle appreciated for intelligently balancing spacious practicality with driving agility and urban sophistication, the CX-5 evolved thoughtfully and significantly within Mazda's automotive history. Observing the trajectory of this compact SUV's lineage provides clarity on why these specific model years have been critically acclaimed and enthusiastically embraced globally.
Historical Context and Evolution of the Mazda CX-5:
First Generation KE (2012-2017):
Mazda first introduced the CX-5 in the 2012 model year as the spirited successor to its Tribute SUV, ushering in the brand's fresh "KODO: Soul of Motion" design philosophy along with the innovative SkyActiv Technology platform. The 2012 CX-5 marked a transformative step for Mazda, being the first vehicle in the Mazda lineup to holistically employ the full gamut of SkyActiv principles, encompassing engine, chassis, transmission, and body development. The objective was clear—achieving enhanced efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved dynamic performance in harmony.
During these inaugural years, the CX-5 solidified its position as an attractive blend of compact dimensions, functional interior packaging, lively driving responsiveness, and advanced fuel-saving plans. Available engine options—a lively 2.0-liter SkyActiv-G gasoline engine and later an even more potent 2.5-liter SkyActiv-G unit—quickly became recognized for their balance of efficiency and robust yet smooth acceleration.
Following substantial initial success, Mazda implemented refined updates and introduced notable enhancements midway through the first generation's lifecycle, particularly visible in the 2015–2017 restyling.
Mazda CX-5 Mid-Generation Refresh (2015-2017):
The model refresh beginning in 2015 introduced meaningful improvements in exterior refinement, interior quality, and driving comforts. Exterior updates included revised front-end styling characterized by an upgraded grille design, LED lighting elements available on higher trims, and detailed enhancements accentuating sophistication and visual appeal. Cabin refinements elevated quality with more comfortable seating, improved interior materials, better sound insulation ensuring quieter ride quality, and enhanced infotainment offerings. Mechanical enhancements led to smoother drivability, responsive steering, improved ride handling thanks to refined suspension tuning, and better cabin noise isolation, particularly at highway speeds.
Distinctive across this refreshed lineup was Mazda's intuitive MZD Connect infotainment interface, bringing user-friendly features and sensible conveniences to drivers and passengers alike. Yet, despite providing Bluetooth and USB connectivity, factory infotainment configurations during this period lacked Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration—a notable omission given rising consumer preferences for smartphone-connected driving experience.
Integration of Brummstadt's Premium Head Unit:
Acknowledging this limitation, Brummstadt presents a thoughtfully designed aftermarket head unit specifically suitable for the Mazda CX-5's dashboard architecture, offering owners broad and versatile connectivity options. Their solution directly addresses earlier limitations by incorporating sophisticated, user-friendly smartphone integration. Wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility highlight a feature-rich infotainment upgrade, now bringing intuitive smartphone functionality right into the Mazda's elegant interior.
The modern unit smoothly accommodates popular navigation services—such as Google Maps, WAZE, and Apple Maps—enabling easy, dependable journey planning. Picture a scenario: after a comfortable meal spent enjoying an evening out with family, the driver's smartphone conveniently displays a custom destination map to visit a friend. Automatically transferring this navigation from phone directly to the Brummstadt head unit screen via wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto ensures an uncomplicated, enjoyable departure—fully prepared and without distraction.
Beyond navigation ease, additional valuable features highlight the unit's versatility and practicality. An optional upgrade includes comprehensive front and rear 1080p HD cameras, markedly notably enhancing safety and giving peace of mind through detailed, recorded footage during commutes and journeys alike. Uniquely, the system also supports interactive passenger-focused entertainment—a family can enjoy multiplayer gaming via integrated USB ports, turning routine travel into genuinely enjoyable, shared times.
Further enriching owner experience comes through intelligent voice control technology. Aside from standard telephone and media commands, the advanced voice assistants—like Apple's Siri and Google's Assistant—permit direct communication with smart devices situated at home. With seamless voice integration, conveniently turning home lights or other connected systems on before arrival simplifies life's detailed daily routines by effortlessly extending connected lifestyle benefits.
Advantages and Driving Experience:
The Mazda CX-5 models spanning the 2015–2017 refresh have earned accolades and buyer loyalty largely by bringing engaging driving dynamics together with urban practicality. Owners universally appreciate Mazda's precise, responsive handling, paired harmoniously with thoughtfully tuned suspension for comfortable yet athletic driving characteristics. The interior genuinely creates an atmosphere of quiet quality, underscored by intuitive control placement, appealing interior materials, and pleasing ergonomics.
Beautifully preserving Mazda's carefully crafted driving ambiance while simultaneously complementing it with contemporary connectivity and technological usability, the installation of Brummstadt's compatible head unit substantially broadens functionality. Owners now easily harness updated wireless smartphone integrations and comprehensive digital navigation choices, making journeys both thoroughly accessible and genuinely enjoyable. Safety improvements with enhanced camera visibility, family-oriented entertainment options, and fully integrated voice coordination with home systems collectively transform daily driving significantly—deepening engagement and significantly increasing overall driving satisfaction.
Within the broad scope of Mazda's automotive journey and the revered CX-5 lineage specifically, the 2015–2017 CX-5 series distinctly represents purposeful refinement in design, technological advancement, and sophisticated driving experience—making the selection of bespoke technological improvements both a sensible decision and a rewarding personal investment in long-term automotive enjoyment.
