Attached is what mine looks like. I think you basically have 3 connections to contend with:

WiFi
Cell antenna
GPS

As far as I know, WiFi goes into cell and GPS into GPS.

So it looks like the CTHome T9 head unit is out, waiting for reviews.-img_6912-jpg

For my 2013, I found an adapter that allows the factory GPS antenna to work with this unit. Installed lat night and confirmed. Discount Car Stereo was super helpful and shipped fast. I would think it’ll work with 2010-2013.

Got it installed tonight, everything is smooth and looks great HOWEVER, the steering wheel controls and the door open notifications do not work.

I'm guessing the Canbus is not on? Is there a setting somewhere to turn it on?

I checked the Canbus module and it is nice and tight in the clip...so I'm guessing it's a setting somewhere. I tried the steering wheel app to set the buttons but nothing works.

Thanks guys!

I don’t think there is a setting to turn on. But there is a spot in settings somewhere called Car Choose. I think this is where you tell it what module and what car.

I would email Rhino. They’re slow and not very helpful but they should be able to help. You have 2014 or newer?

Yeah a 2016.
I did see that area where you choose the car, is set to the top one which is a Camry... Of course 4runner or Tacoma is not an option so I have no idea what it set it to.

I'll try and get a hold of Rhino tomorrow.

I've been wondering this as well. Seems like there was already a couple iterations of this head unit, it would make sense if they release a new one. If anyone has info on this, let us know!

Pulled the T9 this morning and found a small 2 pin blue wire connector that were not connected. Connected them and the Canbus is working perfectly. Ran through the whole radio and it looks like it's running 100%.

Now, onto Torque Pro. I got the OBD2 Bluetooth from Rhino and plugged it in, turned it on... then on the T9 I hit the Bluetooth app. Search, it finds the OBD2, touch and hold it, it pops up with a window saying OK - OBD2 - CANCEL i hit OK, and get the message "Pairing Successful". I then go to Torque Pro, go into settings to select the BOD2 scanner... but does not find it.

I tried to remove the OBD2 and pair about 4 times. It will not connect to Torque even though it says it's Paired int he Bluetooth app.
Also tried hitting OBD2 when the window appears instead of OK, but that comes up as "pairing unsuccessful"

Ideas?

Thanks all!

t9 Color?

anybody know what color trim to purchase?

I have a Silver Limited, 2019 - and the trim colors offered are "Silver", "Dark Silver" and "Black"

It looks like my trim is the perfect blend of the Silver and Dark Silver mixed together - worried silver is too light and dark silver is too dark.

Any recommendations or photos folks can share?

Rhino only has the Dark Silver now so thats what I had to get. When I asked about the regular silver they said the manufacturer stopped producing those because the Dark Silver matches better.
Of course when I got it and installed it, you can definitely see the color difference, the regular Silver would be the color match to my '16 SR5, not the Dark Silver.

they actually put the silver back in stock, but of course it looks too light....anybody install either and have images they can share?

It’s the silver option. The colors are not a perfect match.
