VW Crafter (2017-2023) Double DIN Car Stereo Upgrade Fitting Kit (Composition Audio/ Without SWC)

Complete stereo upgrade fitting kit to allow the fitting of an aftermarket double DIN car stereo upgrade in select Volkswagen Crafter (2017-2023) vehicles with factory fitted composition audio (Type 1 or Type 2) head units.

This stereo upgrade fitting kit contains:

• Volkswagen Crafter (2017 Onwards) ISO radio replacement CANbus interface (20-190-IGN)
• Fakra to Male DIN aerial antenna adapter cable (21-123)
• Volkswagen Crafter (2017 Onwards) Single DIN fascia adapter panel (50-399)

Installation Depth

Due to the lower section behind the radio having ducts for the air vents on the Volkswagen Crafter (2017-2023) there is only space for a Single DIN radio chassis or a slim chassis/ modular head unit (maximum mounting depth for the aftermarket radio of 55mm). These units must have the single DIN body relocated to the top of the dashboard because in the crafter the single DIN hole is at the top, the lower part is only 55mm deep and is not a DIN depth so would not allow you to mount a traditional Double DIN radio.

Volkswagen Crafter (2017 Onwards) ISO radio replacement CANbus interface (20-190-IGN)

Upgrade your Volkswagen Crafter from 2017 onwards with our premium radio replacement ISO adapter cable, designed specifically for vehicles equipped with original basic radios. This innovative adapter seamlessly converts your car's original 52-pin quadlock connector to standard aftermarket ISO connectors, making stereo upgrades effortless.

One of the standout features of this adapter is its built-in CANbus interface. The integrated CANbus not only simplifies the connection but also provides an ignition power supply directly to your new aftermarket radio. This means you can say goodbye to the tedious task of hunting for an ignition power source from the fuse box—installing your new stereo has never been easier!

Additionally, our adapter cable includes an extension that allows re-connection of the original radio. This is particularly beneficial for making vital adjustments to your vehicle settings, such as changing the time and date or toggling vehicle stability control (VSC) on and off.

Fakra to Male DIN aerial antenna adapter cable (21-123)

This cable converts the original antenna connector in the car, known as a Fakra connector, to a standard aftermarket antenna connector, known as a DIN connector.

The adapter cable has a built in module which provides a phantom power feed to the original antenna in the car. A phantom power feed is a 12v power supply that is sent up the centre wire of the antenna cable, this powers the amplifier built into the original antenna. The antenna adapter cable has a loose wire which needs to be connected to the 12v antenna power output of the new aftermarket stereo.

The phantom power feed terminates in a junior timer receptacle terminal to make it easy to connect into the electric antenna turn on position of a standard ISO connector.

Fascia Installation

Due to the lower section behind the radio having ducts for the air vents on the Volkswagen Crafter (2017-2023) there is only space for a Single DIN radio chassis or a slim chassis/ modular head unit (maximum mounting depth for the aftermarket radio of 55mm). These units must have the single DIN body relocated to the top of the dashboard because in the crafter the single DIN hole is at the top, the lower part is only 55mm deep and is not a DIN depth so would not allow you to mount a traditional Double DIN radio.
