9" MK4 Multimedia Headunit for Toyota LandCruiser 70 Series (2008–2026)
More Than Just a Headunit
The MK4 replaces the entire factory radio and fascia, including the original Toyota headunit, clock and hazard button. The result is a clean, integrated OEM-style finish that modernises the 70 Series dash.

Hi-Res Audio
With 256GB storage, you can store your entire FLAC library directly on the unit, with Dolby DTS processing on board for richer, more cinematic sound quality.
Offline Touring
Download massive offline map areas to the internal storage for use without signal.
Campsites & Trip Planning
Find campsites, reviews and facilities while you are already in the car on the way.
Family & Kids Entertainment
Keep kids or passengers amused while parked up or waiting, without handing over your phone.
Engine Data & Gauges
Run Torque Pro or OBD apps with the fast Snapdragon processor for real-time gauge updates.
Diagnostics & Fault Codes
Quickly read and clear basic fault codes when a warning pops up on the dash.
Work On The Road
Manage emails, calendar and messages in the work ute without dragging out the laptop at every stop.
Tradie & Job Management

Daily Commute & City Driving
Make the 70 feel more like a modern daily with decent maps and audio, including Dolby DTS for stronger in-cabin sound quality, without losing the character.
Photo & Content Capture
Review footage from dash cams or action cameras on a decent-sized screen at camp or on the side of the track.
Off-Grid & Touring Setups
Monitor power systems, fridges or other hardware that has companion apps, all from the driver's seat.
Future Apps & Ideas
Because it runs Android, the MK4 can grow with new apps and accessories instead of feeling dated in a few years.
On-Vehicle Perspective
The 9" Landscape form factor offers a modern wide-screen experience while retaining factory ergonomics.
Modern Landscape Layout
The 9-inch wide screen is the perfect balance. It's large enough for split-screen apps (like Maps + Music) but doesn't dominate the entire dashboard like larger portrait units can.
Built For Corrugations
Solid state storage, no moving parts, and secure mounting points ensure the MK4 handles the punishment of Australian outback tracks.

Six Years Of Refinement
The MK4 is the result of six years of real-world development, customer feedback and continuous improvement. Every generation has built on the last, and the MK4 is the most capable and best-supported headunit we have made.
| Generation | Year | What Changed |
|---|---|---|
| MK1 | 2019 | First Android-based headunit. Introduced touchscreen navigation, music apps and basic smartphone-style functionality. |
| MK2 | 2020 | Faster processor for smoother operation, quicker boot times and more reliable day-to-day use. |
| MK2.5 | 2021 | Improved system stability and reliability based on customer feedback. Fewer crashes and better overall performance. |
| MK3 | 2023 | Major upgrade to the screen and fascia design, delivering a cleaner factory-style look and improved display quality. Added wireless Apple CarPlay support. |
| MK4 | 2025 | Our biggest leap forward yet. Much faster performance, more memory for multitasking, quicker app loading, smoother navigation, and the ability to run multiple apps at once without lag. |
The MK4 is the most refined, responsive and future-ready headunit we have built, and it keeps improving with ongoing software updates. Because it runs Android, your MK4 grows with new apps and features instead of feeling dated. Developed and supported directly by PVS Automotive Pty Ltd.

Vehicle Compatibility
Designed for the 70 Series LandCruiser (2008+) with the standard 200mm radio aperture.
Early steel dash 70 Series with the narrow radio slot. The MK4 does not fit this dash.

2023+ Facelift 70 Series dash Automatic and Manual Models. Fits the updated interior for a modern factory look.
Compatibility Notes
Clear answers on steering integration, reverse cameras and installation before you purchase.
Factory steering wheel controls
The MK4 works with factory steering wheel controls on LC70 where they are already fitted. A wireless control module is not required when factory controls are present.
Aftermarket & custom wheels
Aftermarket or custom steering wheels may require additional setup. We cannot guarantee non-PVS aftermarket wheels. PVS steering wheel upgrade kits are the recommended, supported path; the wireless control module is included with those kits, not supplied with the MK4 headunit on its own.
Reverse camera setups
Factory reverse cameras on 2023+ facelift LC76 are compatible. The MK4 also works with AutoChimp 28-pin camera systems. Some dealer-fitted cameras may need a 4-pin to 28-pin interface harness. Behaviour is not the same across every LC70 variant. Share your year and camera details if you are unsure.
Plug-and-play scope
Designed to be plug and play, though some vehicles with previous modifications or non-factory accessories may require additional setup.

FAQ
Yes, if your Toyota 70 Series has the standard 200mm factory radio aperture (2008 onward, where that dash applies).
Important: The MK4 does not suit early steel dash models with the narrow radio slot. Those dashboards are not supported.
If you are unsure which dash you have, send us a photo and we will confirm fitment before you purchase.
The MK4 is supplied as a vehicle-specific kit when the correct option is selected, including the headunit, fascia, harness and supporting hardware.

The MK4 works with factory steering wheel controls on LC70 where they are already fitted from the factory.
A wireless control module is not required when those factory controls are present.
The headunit also has dedicated physical buttons for volume, home and media, which helps when you want hard controls on rough roads.
Aftermarket or custom steering wheels may require additional setup. We cannot guarantee compatibility with non-PVS aftermarket steering wheels.
PVS steering wheel upgrade kits are the recommended, supported path when you want integrated controls with confidence. The wireless module is included with those kits; it is not supplied with the MK4 headunit alone.
The MK4 is compatible with factory reverse cameras on 2023+ facelift LC76 in the supported configuration.
It also works with AutoChimp 28-pin camera systems. Some dealer-fitted cameras may require a 4-pin to 28-pin interface harness.

Units ship with current firmware for the production run. Further updates may still be released over time.
Updates can be applied via USB. Customers need to contact PVS support to obtain the correct update files and guidance.
Apps like Torque Pro are not "one-tap" out of the box: they require downloading from the Play Store and your own configuration (including pairing with supported hardware such as an OBD reader where applicable).
Expect to spend a little time setting permissions, layouts and connections to match your vehicle.
Every kit is backed by practical documentation: an installation guide is included, along with QR code and manual material in the package.
A video guide is available, and email support is available if you need help during fitment.
Yes. The MK4 supports wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto on compatible phones, for day-to-day driving and touring without a cable.
Yes. The MK4 runs Android with Google Play Store access, so apps install and run on the headunit.
Touring favourites such as Newtracs, GAIA and WikiCamps are commonly used this way. Specialist tools still need you to install and configure them; see the Torque Pro note above.
With Snapdragon Octa-Core, 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, the platform is built for responsive multitasking.
You can connect via Wi-Fi (including Starlink and routers), the built-in 4G SIM slot (SIM and plan required), or a phone hotspot when needed.
Many navigation and touring apps support offline map downloads; the large internal storage is suited to big map datasets for remote travel.
Supported streaming apps such as Kayo Sports and YouTube can be installed and used when connected to Wi-Fi or 4G. Use video when parked, at camp or for passenger viewing, and always follow local road rules.
The MK4 also supports split-screen style multitasking (for example maps alongside music) where the apps allow it.
The MK4 supports up to 3 camera inputs (for example reverse, front and an auxiliary feed) with automatic reverse switching when wired correctly.
AHD and CVBS sources are supported when selected properly in settings. Factory reverse camera compatibility varies by vehicle and year; see the reverse camera FAQ above.
Yes. The MK4 includes a built-in Class-D amplifier, Dolby DTS audio processing and DSP tuning for a clear step up from the factory headunit in sound quality, and it works well with many upgraded speaker and amplifier setups.
RCA pre-outs and SPDIF digital output are included for feeding external amplifiers or DSP processors.
Yes. The MK4 uses an upgraded microphone path with hardware and tuning aimed at clearer calls in noisy 70 Series cabins.
We recommend fitting the supplied external microphone close to the driver for best results.
The MK4 is covered by a 36-month warranty from PVS Automotive Pty Ltd, with platform support managed in-house.
Alongside warranty coverage, you have access to email support, documentation and update files through support when they are released.
