I thought this might be a useful place to ask this question. I recently installed Icom5021 radio in my Gen5 and each time I key the radio it resets my Pioneer audio deck that my phone is connected to via USB, disconnects CarPlay, etc. I’ve tried multiple fuses with my add-a-fuse and the same result persists. Any thoughts or other questions?

w0w those subs . nice upgrade.

Recently had my aftermarket stereo stolen on my 19'. Anyone have any idea the part numbers for the 3 plastic parts that you transfer over to the metra dash kit from the oem?

The "above center vent trim piece" doesn't have a part number, Toyota does not sell that piece.. it only comes with a full head unit/center console replacement. I know because I stripped one of the screws changing out my OEM head unit for my Alpine Halo9. I went to the dealer and we looked it up. You'd have to find one off a junked 4runner or someone selling one. I scoured the internet looking for that piece, zero results.

As for the other two.. you are referring to the 2 center vents?

No the surround for the roller that opens and closes the vent. I was figuring I'd have to find a junk yard. :\

car-parts.com or ebay may also work

Are any of the OEM head units worth the trouble of installing? I have a 2016 SR5 and would like nav and a better stereo. I think the last time I looked into this I would need Toyota to program it for me?
Any aftermarket units able to integrate into the steering wheel buttons and factory camera?

Youtube kindly let me know the Trail Grid Pro guys put together a speaker upgrade package for 4Runners. These guys are on the other side of the state for me but I'm gonna have to make a trip out west, they're crushing how to make upgrades easy. Can't speak for sound, but would be interested if anyone has the JBL System and what it sounds like without changing the amp.

I'm a Kicker guy going back to twin 10'' Solobarics in a '94 wrangler. Currently have the KS speakers in my '08 with the AX-7000 headunit and they thump.

The cost of new OEM headunits or trying to pair swapped ones varies by the year of how they would match up to your 2016 wiring.

I just posted above this about the speaker upgrade that the Trail Grid guys offer, but I originally found them looking for aftermarket headunit swaps. They sell kits that are easy to install, retain the wiring on steering wheels I believe by using a PAC Audio SWC kit, which retains the SWC's and Aux input/Backup Camera. Had to use one of the PAC kits when i got my Sony AX7000 on my 08 upgrade, but i went thru Crutchfield before i knew these guys were around.

Take a look at their headunit swaps since they have the replacement faceplates, will probably be easier. OEM's from wrecks or other sales would be cheaper though.

I know this is an old post but I've been searching and trying to find an answer. Did you get your park assist to work? I can't seem to get mine on my 18 limited to work with the maestro unit.

The parking sensors do not work. I pressed Maestro on it and they confirmed the sensors are not on canbus, therefore not picked up via data with the RR like many other Toyota's are. 2020+ maybe different.

If you are referring to back-up camera and parking lines that bend as you turn the wheel, that is radio dependent. Kenwood and JVC have had that feature for a while. My new Alpine does not have that feature with the Maestro RR.

Parking sensors, I’ve got the dynamic lines to work. Just wish I could see the parking sensors on the radio.

I know this is an old thread but I went by Best Buy about a month ago and got a quote for a stereo install with and without a backup camera for my 2011 4Runner. My ex knows his stereos and he's used them twice and was happy with the work. I don't know anything about stereos but I think the price was reasonable.

I wouldn't depend on Best Buy to do the install. Support your local audio shop and have them do the work instead

Anyone replace their factor stereo with alpine halo11 ilx-f511? Looking to do so and wondering if there’s a way to integrate climate control? Also have seen some post about streaming while in drive options. I understand this is not advised for the driver obviously for safety reasons but truly something that would be nice for passengers. 2019 TRD PRO. Thanks!
