Range Rover Sport L494 Android screen buyers usually want a larger display, wireless CarPlay or Android Auto and retained factory controls without losing the original premium dashboard experience. The main sourcing risk is not screen size alone. Buyers must confirm the exact year, dashboard, original infotainment layout, HUD status, connector package and required OEM functions before sample approval or bulk quotation.

Quick Answer

For a Range Rover Sport L494 Android screen quotation, send the exact model year, full dashboard and original screen photos, LHD or RHD layout, HUD status, OEM camera and audio requirements, preferred 10.25 / 12.3 / 13 inch screen option, quantity, target market and private-label scope. JLR Upgrade’s current L494 product route is listed for 2013-2017 vehicles; later years or different dashboard versions require separate fitment confirmation.

Current L494 Product Route

The current JLR Upgrade product program covers a 2013-2017 Range Rover Sport L494 Android head unit route with:

  • 10.25 inch OEM-fit screen option.
  • 12.3 inch larger-screen upgrade option.
  • 13 inch 24-pin screen option.
  • Android multimedia and wireless CarPlay / Android Auto planning.
  • OEM reverse camera, Terrain Response, heated-seat, mirror, wiper, audio and climate-control retention subject to the confirmed vehicle version.

The platform name alone is not enough for final ordering. A buyer should confirm the exact dashboard and original system before choosing the screen and harness package.

L494 And L405: Same Connector Family Does Not Mean Automatic Fitment

The current L494 product note identifies the route as being in the same connector family as the Range Rover L405 program. This is useful for comparison, but it does not mean every L405 and L494 screen package is interchangeable.

Before quotation, confirm:

  • L494 or L405 platform.
  • Exact model year.
  • Full dashboard layout.
  • Original screen size and interface.
  • HUD vs non-HUD.
  • Connector or harness photo where available.
  • OEM camera, audio and climate requirements.

Use the Range Rover L405 Android Head Unit Fitment Guide when comparing the full-size Range Rover route with the Range Rover Sport L494 route.

Screen Size Options

10.25 Inch OEM-Fit Route

The 10.25 inch route is intended for buyers who prefer a more factory-style appearance. It may suit distributors and installers who want a conservative upgrade path that stays visually close to the original dashboard.

12.3 Inch Upgrade Route

The 12.3 inch option targets buyers who want a larger interface while keeping a vehicle-specific frame and retained factory functions. Dashboard photos and the original screen version should still be checked before sampling.

13 Inch 24-Pin Route

The 13 inch 24-pin route is a higher-visibility upgrade for buyers comparing large-screen programs. The supplier should confirm that the dashboard, connector package, HUD status and retained-function requirements match the selected program before quoting.

Screen size should never be selected only from a marketplace title or a buyer’s model-name description.

HUD, Dashboard And Connector Checks

HUD vs non-HUD status should be included in the L494 RFQ. It is one of the checks used to separate fitment variants and buyer expectations.

Send:

  • Full center-dashboard photo.
  • Original screen close-up.
  • Climate-control area photo.
  • Original connector or harness photo if the unit has already been removed.
  • Exact model year and sales market.
  • LHD or RHD.
  • HUD vs non-HUD.

If these details are missing, the quotation should remain conditional until the buyer supplies vehicle evidence.

OEM Function Retention

For the confirmed 2013-2017 L494 route, buyers commonly ask to retain:

  • OEM reverse camera.
  • Terrain Response and 4×4 information.
  • Heated-seat controls where equipped.
  • Auto folding mirrors.
  • Auto wipers.
  • Steering-wheel controls.
  • Factory audio output.
  • Dual-zone climate controls and original AC panel behavior.
  • Vehicle settings shown through the original system.

The final quotation should list which functions are retained for the confirmed vehicle. Any function that depends on year, original infotainment or market configuration should be marked for sample verification.

Wholesale RFQ Checklist

Distributors, installers, online parts brands and OEM/ODM buyers should include:

  • Vehicle: Range Rover Sport L494.
  • Exact year within the requested program.
  • Destination market and LHD/RHD layout.
  • Dashboard, original screen and climate-panel photos.
  • HUD status.
  • OEM camera, audio, climate and steering-wheel-control requirements.
  • Preferred screen: 10.25, 12.3 or 13 inch 24-pin.
  • Required Android memory and storage configuration.
  • Sample quantity, bulk quantity and expected monthly volume.
  • UI language, boot logo and software requirements.
  • Packaging artwork, barcode, insert, label and carton-mark requirements.
  • Shipping destination and after-sales documentation expectations.

This structure reduces wrong samples, repeated quotation revisions and avoidable after-sales disputes.

Sample Validation Before Bulk Orders

Validate one sample or a small pilot order before committing to volume. The sample stage should check:

  • Physical screen and frame fit.
  • Harness and connector match.
  • Boot behavior and system stability.
  • Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto.
  • OEM camera and audio.
  • Steering-wheel controls.
  • Climate and vehicle settings.
  • HUD-related expectations.
  • Included accessories and documentation.
  • Packaging, label and private-label details.

For OEM/ODM programs, also verify boot logo, UI or OS scope, language pack, barcode, insert, carton mark and buyer-facing support documents.
