SAME CAR
BRAND NEW FEEL
The GSX Series transforms your vehicle into a premium in-car experience — smarter technology, better sound, and the connected drive you didn’t know you were missing. This is what your car should have felt like from the factory.”
GSX Series Features
Full Rundown
All Vhedia head units run on the latest stable version of the Android operating system. This means your head unit is a fully standalone system, not just a screen for your phone.
Think of it like having a powerful Android tablet built directly into your dashboard.
Unlike systems that rely only on Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, a full Android head unit gives you more flexibility, customisation, and functionality — without being limited by phone-based restrictions.
Install almost any app you want
- Google Maps and other navigation apps
- Offline mapping apps (e.g. Hema 4×4 Maps)
- Spotify, YouTube Music, Netflix*
- OBD2 apps like Torque for engine data
- TPMS apps for tyre pressure monitoring
*Video playback should only be used when safely parked.
Works without a phone
Use navigation, Bluetooth calls, media playback, and apps directly from the head unit.
More freedom than Android Auto or CarPlay
The built-in Android system removes app and feature limitations, letting you customise your setup exactly how you want.
Supports both wireless and wired Android Auto. Connect automatically when you enter the car, or plug in via USB.
- Use Google Maps or Waze
- Play music from Spotify and supported apps

Android Auto uses your phone's GPS and data, not the head unit's.

More freedom than Android Auto or CarPlay
Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are designed to be simple and limit distractions, which also means limited apps and features. The built-in Android system removes these limitations, allowing you to customise your setup exactly how you want.
All Vhedia head units include Android Auto, supporting both wireless and wired connections.
- Connect automatically when you enter the car (wireless), or
- Plug in via USB if you prefer a wired connection
What is Android Auto?
Android Auto is a driver-friendly interface from your phone, designed for use while driving. It shows a simplified version of your phone on the head unit, focusing on safety and voice control.
- Use Google Maps or Waze
- Play music from Spotify and other supported apps
- Make calls and send messages using voice commands
Android Auto uses your phone's GPS and mobile data, not the head unit's.
Important to know: Only selected apps are supported, and features are intentionally limited to reduce driver distraction.
All Vhedia head units include Apple CarPlay, supporting wireless and wired connections.
- Connect automatically when you enter the car, or
- Plug in with a cable if preferred
What is Apple CarPlay?
Apple CarPlay mirrors key functions from your iPhone in a safer, driving-focused layout.
- Use Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze
- Play music from Spotify, Apple Music, and more
- Make calls and send messages using Siri
Like Android Auto, CarPlay uses your phone's GPS and mobile data.
Limitations: CarPlay only supports approved apps and simplified layouts. For full app freedom and standalone use, the built-in Android system is the key advantage.
Vhedia head units are vehicle-specific, designed to suit each model and year.
- Custom dash fascia for a factory-style fit
- Sits flush and looks like it came installed from the factory
With included adaptor kits and control modules, factory features are retained, including:
- Steering wheel controls
- Factory reverse cameras and 360° cameras (where applicable)
- Other factory vehicle functions
Vhedia head units are designed for easy DIY installation. Each kit includes vehicle-specific plug-and-play wiring adaptors, control modules where required, and trim removal tools to avoid damaging interior panels.
In most cases, installation involves matching plugs and connecting them — no cutting or splicing required.
You may still need basic tools such as a screwdriver or socket set. If you're not comfortable using basic tools, we recommend professional installation.
All units support Australian FM and AM radio out of the box.
For DAB+ digital radio, an optional plug-in module is available. It plugs into the back of the head unit and includes a windscreen-mounted antenna.
Each unit has a built-in GPS receiver, allowing navigation without a phone. By default, Google Maps is installed, but you can install multiple navigation apps, choose your preferred default, and use offline navigation for remote travel (e.g. Hema 4×4 Maps).
When using Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, navigation is handled by your phone instead.
Vhedia head units include an advanced built-in DSP (Digital Signal Processor), allowing you to improve factory speaker sound, fine-tune EQ and sound staging, and optimise music playback for clarity and depth.
The DSP also improves call quality by enhancing microphone pickup while reducing background noise, helping voices sound clearer both ways.
Split screen allows you to view two apps at the same time — for example navigation on one side and music/media on the other. Most apps support split-screen mode, making multitasking easy.
Vhedia head units are designed to be the central command centre of your vehicle. Compatible accessories can display directly on the head unit, keeping your dashboard clean.
- Bluetooth OBD2 Scanner (included): View live engine data, custom dashboards, read/clear fault codes.
- Bluetooth TPMS: Monitor tyre pressures in real time and set warning alerts.
- Reverse & auxiliary cameras: Add reverse or extra cameras (vehicle + caravan/trailer setups supported).
- Dash camera: Add a front-facing dash cam that records and can be viewed on the head unit.
Experience the ultimate in-car upgrade with the GSX Series, a powerful Android 13 platform designed for those who demand performance, connectivity, and superior sound quality.

WHY
FAQ'S
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
All GSX Series Vhedia head units support Android Auto (wired and wireless), but Apple CarPlay is supported wirelessly only.
This is because Apple CarPlay is widely used in wireless mode, offering a more seamless and cable-free experience for iPhone users. Our GSX Series is designed to prioritize this convenience, allowing quick and automatic connection without the need to plug in your device.
No. If you’re comfortable using basic tools like a screwdriver, most installations can be completed in under an hour. Modern vehicle dashboards are typically clip-in and plug-and-play with the supplied kit.

Yes. You can connect via:
- Wi-Fi (home Wi-Fi or phone hotspot), or

Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are phone-based systems that mirror a simplified version of your phone for safe driving.
The Android operating system built into the head unit is completely separate and allows the unit to work on its own, just like a tablet.
The GSX Series runs Android 13. Car head units use a simplified version of Android built specifically for in-car use, so the version number is different to what you’d see on a phone.
This doesn’t affect how the unit works. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and all the features on this unit work exactly as designed.
Yes. There are RCA pre-outs for speaker channels and a dedicated subwoofer output.
If your vehicle already has a factory reverse camera, the adaptor kit allows you to retain it.
If not, a 1080p HD reverse camera is included.
Yes, FM and AM are built in. DAB+ requires an optional plug-in module.

Unit sent to me was latest version. Much of the support material was for older versions which made installation and set up a little more complicated. Nonetheless, support provided by phone was excellent.
Sorry about that, mate. We’re transitioning some of the head units to our newer version. We’ll take note of this and improve our materials in the future.
Had a couple of teething problems but Arthur sorted everything out. Seriously good after sales support. I would not hesitate to recommend Vhedia to anyone
With 2 wiring looms in the kit it was a little overwhelming. Would have been a lot easier if you only included the loom for my vehicle. Apart from that I love the new unit.
Excellent unit still learning but top bit of gear
Installed the unit, updated the firmware and all working within an hour. Fantastic unit, delivering every thing promised and more!
Installation video absolutely spot on.
Highly recommended
