Scosche car audio in 2026: what to expect

Scosche has been making car audio fitting parts and accessories in California since 1980. UK installers know the brand for two things: the MagicMount magnetic phone holder family, and an enormous catalogue of ISO wiring harnesses, antenna adapters and dash kits. This page explains the Scosche lines Bass Junkies stocks and how to pick the right mount, harness or adapter for your build.

MagicMount magnetic phone holders

• MagicMount Vent. Clips into a dashboard vent and grips the phone with rare-earth magnets, ideal for short cabins.
• MagicMount Dash. Adhesive 3M base for a permanent low-profile mount that survives UK summer heat.
• MagicMount Pro Charge. Wireless charging variant for Qi-compatible phones, useful for delivery drivers and ride-share.
• MagicMount MagSafe. Purpose-built MagSafe ring for iPhone 12 through iPhone 16 without a magnet plate.

Wiring harnesses and ISO adapters

Scosche ISO and OEM-specific wiring harnesses let you fit an aftermarket head unit without cutting a single factory wire. The colour-coded looms plug into the original radio connector and break out to standard ISO power, speaker and ignition feeds. Stock includes harnesses for Ford, Vauxhall, BMW, Audi, VW, Citroen, Peugeot, Toyota, Nissan and Honda from the late 1990s through current 2026 models.

Antenna adapters and dash kits

• Fakra to DIN antenna adapters. Required on most VW Group, BMW and Mercedes cars to connect a DIN-radio to the factory aerial.
• DIN to ISO antenna leads. For older Ford, Vauxhall and Peugeot platforms where the factory plug is a different shape.
• Single DIN dash kits. Fascia surrounds that fill the gap when a smaller stereo is fitted in a double DIN slot.
• Double DIN dash kits. Brand-specific fascias for popular UK fitments including Ford Transit, Vauxhall Astra and VW Golf.

Brand quality at a glance

• Scosche. California design, neodymium magnets, OEM-grade harness pins and a five-year warranty on most MagicMount products.
• Connects2. UK alternative for fascias, ISO harnesses and steering wheel control interfaces, often available for the same vehicle.
• Autoleads. Long-standing UK supplier we stock alongside Scosche for fascia kits and aerial adapters.
• PAC and Axxess. US sister brands carried for vehicle-specific data interfaces and amp turn-on leads.

Compatibility and fitting

• Fascia adapter. Required to make a single or double DIN head unit sit flush in the factory dashboard.
• ISO harness. Plug-and-play wiring loom that links the new stereo to the original power and speaker connector.
• Steering wheel control adapter. Retains the factory steering stalk buttons with any modern aftermarket head unit.
• Antenna adapter. Converts the OEM aerial plug to DIN or Fakra so radio reception remains strong.

MagicMount care and replacement plates

MagicMount kits ship with two metal plates: a large rectangle for tablets or chunky cases, and a small disc that hides under a flexible phone case. Plates are also sold separately so you can keep one car set up and still take the phone to other cars. Wipe the magnet face every few weeks to remove dust and the grip stays factory-strong for years.

Pricing and value for 2026

Scosche pricing is sensible for the build quality. MagicMount Vent and Dash sit between 12 and 30 pounds, MagicMount Pro Charge wireless variants are around 60 pounds, ISO wiring harnesses cost 15 to 35 pounds depending on vehicle and dash kits range from 25 to 75 pounds. For most stereo installs you can buy a Scosche fascia, harness and antenna lead for under 65 pounds total.
