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 Smart Fortwo represents one of the most distinctive automotive designs in recent decades, famed for its compact dimensions, urban-friendly maneuverability, and inventive styling. Conceived originally to navigate congested city streets with ease, the Smart Fortwo has continually demonstrated how intelligent engineering and distinctive design can shape global transportation trends. The period between 2016 and 2020 marked a particularly thoughtful iteration in the vehicle's long-running journey, combining expanded technology elements and advanced build quality while still retaining the model's urban-focused philosophy.
Historical Overview of the Smart Fortwo:
First Generation (1998-2007):
The Smart Fortwo began its life in Europe in 1998, initially as the “Smart City Coupe.” Developed as a collaboration between Mercedes-Benz and Swatch watchmaker Nicolas Hayek, it brought an innovative concept to the automotive landscape. Its pioneering short wheelbase allowed unparalleled ease in tight city spaces, appealing strongly to drivers navigating crowded streets where space was at a premium. Early Fortwos received acclaim for novel features such as fully interchangeable plastic body panels, compact dimensions, and outstanding fuel efficiency—establishing this small car as a novel solution for urban mobility challenges while gaining popularity across Europe's metropolitan centres.
Second Generation (2007-2014):
In its second iteration, the Fortwo evolved substantially with improved safety standards and enhanced comfort. A modest size increase provided marginally better interior space and comfort without compromising the iconic diminutive footprint. The upgraded engineering — particularly enhanced stability control, airbags, electronic assistance systems, and improved build quality — solidified its reputation as a robust urban choice. Throughout Europe, the United States, Asia, and Australia, this version further broadened the Fortwo’s appeal, especially where space was scarce.
Third Generation (2014-Present) - Focus: 2016-2020 Model:
The third-generation Fortwo began in 2014 and saw considerable innovation compared to previous versions. Between 2016 and 2020, it showcased a carefully crafted exterior design, characterized by sleek, modern contours and updated lighting elements. Its interior received substantial refinement, adopting higher-quality materials and upgraded standard equipment for comfort and practicality. With improved handling, quieter ride quality, strong braking performance, and stable dynamics, this iteration enjoyed a significant rise in boutique appeal and practicality. Its turning circle — famously tight — allowed drivers ease and confidence in city traffic scenarios, ensuring the Fortwo remained an exceptional vehicle for tight urban maneuverability.
Despite its compact stature, this generation distinguished itself with elevated infotainment options. However, the standard factory systems often lacked comprehensive smartphone integration, an increasingly significant requirement for modern driving connectivity.
Infotainment and Connectivity Enhancement—Brummstadt Head Unit Integration:
To address these connectivity desires comprehensively, owners of the Smart Fortwo models from 2016–2020 often seek premium aftermarket solutions. Brummstadt, recognized for tailored multimedia integration, offers high-quality head units explicitly designed to blend harmoniously into the existing Smart Fortwo dash configuration. The carefully engineered unit ensures intuitive smartphone connectivity with both wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities, supporting an expansive assortment of popular media, communication, and navigation apps, including Google Maps, WAZE, and Apple Maps.
Consider a realistic scenario—the simple yet common event of dining out with loved ones. Setting the destination effortlessly beforehand on one’s phone through Google Maps or Apple Maps, the navigation instructions appear automatically within the vehicle’s installed Brummstadt multimedia system via CarPlay or Android Auto. This smooth integration transforms navigating from restaurants to friends’ houses, cinemas, or scenic drives into a stress-free and straightforward experience, especially valuable in dense city environments with unpredictable conditions and frequently crowded streets.
Additionally, the Brummstadt head unit supports an optional 1080p HD camera system both at the front and rear, allowing clear video recording of driving events. For tight city parking spaces or urban environments littered with pedestrian activity, these cameras significantly improve vehicle visibility and provide reassuring clarity, while also conveniently offering documentation in case of unforeseen traffic incidents.
Beyond navigation and safety, pleased passengers—particularly during waiting periods or in parked scenarios—can enjoy multiplayer gaming experiences offered directly through USB joystick ports integrated within Brummstadt's multimedia unit. Whether awaiting appointments, during travel rest breaks, or merely passing the time while stationary, integrating entertainment directly within the car environment enhances passenger comfort and strengthens relationships through shared experiences.
A Smart Voice Control feature further extends the head unit’s convenience. Thanks to compatibility with commonly utilized smart assistants like Siri and Google Assistant, occupants easily manage navigation and media functions hands-free. Additionally, the capability for intelligent interaction with home automation devices presents a practical and appealing aspect. Simple voice instructions such as “Hey Siri, turn on the porch lights" make arrival sequences safer, easier, and more intuitive—evidence of thoughtful integration of automotive technology into daily routines.
Key Advantages and Driving Experience:
In core vehicle characteristics, the Smart Fortwo 2016-2020 stands as a great urban companion due to its compact dimensions, nimble handling, and exceptional city-friendly maneuverability. Its responsive powertrain options and engaging drivability translate into pleasant commuting experiences, effectively complementing the upgraded material quality and cabin ambiance throughout this generation’s production years.
Selecting meaningful aftermarket infotainment options from brands like Brummstadt significantly elevates technology-driven practicality. Modern usage requirements often place smartphone connectivity and intuitive access to navigation, entertainment, and information as central to driver satisfaction. With intelligent integration through the Brummstadt head unit, daily commutes become simplified and more enjoyable, long journeys offer additional entertainment opportunities, and parking maneuvers become less stressful.
Ultimately, the Smart Fortwo’s third generation, demonstrated notably from 2016 to 2020, synthesizes inherent practicality and clever city-friendly design with advancements in driving refinement and technology made accessible through carefully considered aftermarket enhancements. These well-chosen modifications translate into driving experiences enriched with convenience, innovative connectivity, and broader versatility—delivering joyful interactions, greater travel comfort, and a broadened scope of daily enjoyment for modern drivers.
