Radio King works on the BYD Seal, launch cars and the 2025 update alike: CarPlay and Android Auto are factory-fitted on the rotating screen, so the jobs are pairing faults, dash cams hardwired on the 12 V side with a battery-safe cut-off, and ambient lighting extended to footwells and doors. Send your reg and we confirm what fits.
The head unit decides the route, and it changed with every generation. Find your years, then pick the service above for what we fit and from what price.
| Generation | Years | Body | Factory system |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-facelift Launch cars | 2023–2025 | — | BYD system with a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen; wireless CarPlay and Android Auto from the factory, improved by software updates |
| Facelift 2025 update | 2025 on | — | Updated BYD system with the 15.6-inch rotating screen and newer software; wireless CarPlay and Android Auto standard |
Generation-by-generation guides first — the Seal jobs we see most. The rest of the workshop's services are done on every BYD too.
Book the install, let us photograph the finished car for a case study, and you get a discount on the fitting. Every Seal owner after you gets a real example to look at.
Answers for Seal owners. Something else? Message us on WhatsApp — we usually reply in under 5 minutes.
Ask on WhatsApp2023 and 2024 launch cars, for dash cams first, then ambient lighting extensions and CarPlay pairing faults after software updates. The 2025 update has the same rotating screen with newer software and comes in for the same dash cam and lighting work, and the odd imported car for maps and language.
Only in how it is used. CarPlay and Android Auto run in landscape, so the screen turns to landscape when they start, and that is normal. Nothing we fit interferes with the rotation, and the screen is never removed for a dash cam or lighting job, so the factory look is untouched.
Pre-facelift — 2023–2025: BYD system with a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen; wireless CarPlay and Android Auto from the factory, improved by software updates. Facelift — 2025 on: Updated BYD system with the 15.6-inch rotating screen and newer software; wireless CarPlay and Android Auto standard. Not sure? Send the reg on WhatsApp and we tell you the generation and the route.
CarPlay: Factory wireless CarPlay on every Seal; software level checked, pairing faults and imported-car set-up sorted. Dash cam: Hardwired on the 12 V side from the cabin fuse panel with a cut-off set for BYD's small battery, both phases. Ambient lighting: Factory ambient extended to footwells, door pockets and boot on launch cars and the 2025 update. Reversing camera: Factory-look camera on the factory screen with guidelines, coded in where the car supports it. Car radio: Larger Android screen with the factory buttons and amplifier kept, where the original display is too small. Speakers: Plug-in door speakers and tweeters, factory head unit and amplifier kept, no cutting. Parking sensors: Four sensors in the rear bumper with a buzzer that beeps faster; sound only. Subwoofer: Under-seat or boot subwoofer on a DSP amplifier fed from the factory unit, boot space kept. Soundproofing: Doors and floor treated with butyl and foam, trim refitted without marks.
CarPlay: under an hour for activation, two to four hours for a box or a screen. Dash cam: one to two hours for a front camera, about two with a rear camera. Ambient lighting: two to four hours. Reversing camera: two to three hours. Most Seal owners wait at the workshop or drop the car in the morning and collect it the same day.
Pre-facelift: the BYD system with a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen; wireless CarPlay and Android Auto from the factory, improved by software updates stays and we add to it. Facelift: the Updated BYD system with the 15.6-inch rotating screen and newer software; wireless CarPlay and Android Auto standard stays and we add to it. Steering-wheel buttons, factory amplifiers and cameras are carried over on every route; the only route that changes what you see is an Android screen, and even then the controls are kept.
Send the reg or the year on WhatsApp or the form below and we confirm the generation, the route, the price and the next free slot. Every job carries a one-year warranty on the work, done at our workshop in Rosemount Business Park, Dublin 11, Monday to Saturday.

Excellent service from Radio King. They supplied and professionally installed a 70mai T800 three-channel camera system in my taxi, covering the front, rear and passenger cabin. The wiring was fitted neatly and everything was fully…
