Your probably right. All I know is I got Apple Car Play and it’s badass. I do know this particular Toyota dealership does like to add aftermarket accessories onto their vehicles and upcharge them by alot!

do recommend the retrofitted HU , I'm happy with the stock look and car play works great.

Since this was installed at the dealer, do you have a warranty on parts and labor? Did they provide a part number on your invoice?

The title of the thread was a little misleading. Sounded like you got a free update to the head unit’s software and voila, Apple CarPlay appears.

Then I saw the post of $275 for the upgrade. Had to have thrown some electronics at it.

Most likely an add on harness. Something similar to this;

Beat-Sonic Wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto for 2014-2019 Toyota models with Entune 2.0 and Entune 2.5

I haven’t seen anything that would make me want carplay. Heck, outside of a backup and forward camera, I don’t even want a screen in my 4Runner. 😎
