About This Service

The VE Series 2 IQ Radio has factory provisions for Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) — video and audio inputs on the back of the radio that can be used to feed a DVD player, aftermarket media kit, gaming console or any AV source into the centre display.

From the factory those inputs are disabled in software, even though the connectors are physically there. This service enables the RSE menu on the radio so the inputs become active — you (or your installer) can then wire your media source into the video and audio pins, and it’ll appear as an AV / RSE source on the IQ screen.

All done at home using the included OBDSync scantool and token redemption serial — no shipping the radio anywhere. The same OBDSync software also unlocks a range of other IQ Radio settings (see below).

See It in Action

Watch a full walkthrough of the OBDSync software performing an IQ Radio configuration change. The video below shows enabling the reverse camera, but the workflow is identical for enabling RSE and any of the other IQ Radio settings — you’ll plug the scantool into the OBD-II port, pick the relevant option in OBDSync, and the radio is reconfigured in minutes:

How It Works — 3 Simple Steps

1

Order & Receive the Kit

Provide your VIN at checkout. We ship the OBDSync scantool together with a printed 2-token redemption serial.

2

Install OBDSync & Redeem Your Serial

Download & install OBDSync (Windows 10 / 11, 64-bit). Create or sign in to your OBDSync account, then enter your redemption serial to add the 2 tokens to your own account.

3

Plug In & Enable RSE

Plug the scantool into your VE’s OBD-II port, select the RSE enable function in OBDSync, and the IQ radio’s RSE input is switched on in minutes.

What’s Included in Your Kit

  • OBDSync Scantool — USB-to-OBD-II adapter, works with all Holden VE Series 2 vehicles
  • Printed 2-Token Redemption Serial — redeem this on your own OBDSync account to add the tokens
  • OBDSync Software Access — free Windows download with lifetime updates
  • Step-by-step instructions — on-screen prompts inside OBDSync
ⓘ Please note: We do not pre-load tokens onto your account at the time of ordering. You apply the tokens yourself by entering the supplied redemption serial inside OBDSync after install.

More You Can Do With This Kit

Beyond the primary RSE enable, the OBDSync software gives you fine-grained control over a wide range of VE Series 2 IQ Radio settings — tweak any of these whenever you like:

Video In Motion (VIM) — keeps RSE / video playing while driving
Reverse camera enable / setup
Audio setup — speaker configuration & tuning
Logo theme — swap the splash branding
Other IQ Radio settings — full configuration access

All of the above are toggled / configured through your OBDSync account — some may consume additional tokens depending on the operation. Check inside OBDSync for the per-feature token cost.

Important — Video & Audio Harnesses Not Supplied

⚠️

Customer-sourced hardware required for the install

Enabling RSE in software is half the job. To actually wire your media source into the back of the IQ radio, you’ll need physical video and audio input harnesses that mate with the factory connector pins on the radio.

We do not supply these harnesses — they must be sourced separately. Options include wreckers, factory parts suppliers, or auto-electrician fabricated harnesses to a known pinout.

If you’re unsure what you need, get in touch before ordering — we’re happy to point you in the right direction.

Compatible Vehicles

Works on all Holden VE Series 2 Commodore and HSV E3 vehicles fitted with the factory IQ Radio (2010–2013):

ⓘ VE Series 1? If your vehicle is a 2006–2010 VE Series 1 (without the IQ touchscreen radio), this isn’t the right product — this service is specifically for the Series 2 IQ Radio fitted from 2010 onwards.

System Requirements

💻
Windows Laptop Required

OBDSync runs on Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit only). A laptop is recommended so you can sit in the car with the scantool plugged into the OBD-II port. A free USB-A port is required.

📝
Captured at checkout

When you add this product to your cart you’ll be asked for your VIN so we can verify the kit is suitable for your vehicle. Your scantool and printed token redemption serial are dispatched once your order is processed — you then redeem that serial yourself inside OBDSync to apply the tokens to your account.

DIY kit only — program from your driveway in minutes. Source your own video / audio harnesses to complete the install.
