Custom car logo for Android headunit

This guide follows the guide to add a car logo to an Android headunit using the pre-installed common manufacturers in CarWebGuru. If you want to install a custom car logo on your Android headunit and have not read the previous guide, here it is.

If you have already tried the guide to Adding a car logo to the Android headunit screen and found that your chosen car logo is missing, there is a great option to include a custom logo in the standard .png format. The advantage of the .png or Portable Network Graphics for a custom car logo is transparency.

To add a custom car logo on your Android headunit follow these instructions:

  1. Follow the previous guide to the point you choose a logo
  2. Select ‘Custom,’ and a message will tell you where to upload your custom logo.

3. Upload from a USB thumb drive or a micro SD card or send it over wifi. ES File Explorer is a valuable tool for managing files (it may need sideloading).
