    My $5 mod in 5 mins.

    Everything still applies to 2020 - the only difference is the sensor itself which does not have a $5 AM equivalent, it's (currently) OEM only. I paid $65ish for mine on ebay.

    trailer wires hook-up- horrible design

    On mine, I found a 7 RV to 4 flat adapter fits better and is easier to use than the 4 flat side of the plug

    Etune SW App update

    While I get what your point is, for practical purposes what exactly did you think the outcome would be there? #1) you've already deduced that the updated is mandatory just like it is on virtually every other piece of hardware these days #2) did you think a CS rep was somehow going to push a...

    My $5 mod in 5 mins.

    I can answer that with a definitive "maybe"? All I can really say is that even for the $70ish used, it was worth it to me

    My $5 mod in 5 mins.

    Sorry, I didnt follow that you hadn't purchased the sensor. If you pry the plastic cap off and disconnect the harness, it'll be obvious. Beyond that, they look pretty much identical from above. But it seems like a safe bet that you don't have the sensor anyway. Btw, auto high beams has nothing...

    Sorry, I didnt follow that you hadn't purchased the sensor. If you pry the plastic cap off and disconnect the harness, it'll be obvious that it's either a sensor with pins or just a plastic holder. But beyond that, they look pretty much identical from above. But it seems like a safe bet that you...

    Make sure the dimmer dial to the left of the steering wheel is not locked in the full up position

    Etune SW App update

    I got the notification a week or so ago. The only thing it seems to have updated is the built in Alexa app. What they changed, I have no idea as I don't use it. But they helpfully flagged it on the screen as "NEW!" even though it isn't.

    Do I need to reposition my dashcam?

    I had that exact issue and posted a thread on here about it. I had to move my camera to the right of the mirror and below the lane departure camera to keep the mirror from dimming all the time

    Automatic High Beams

    ^---- this! I see a lot of people that would "never want to trust themselves to a self driving car" - and they are usually typing that on their phone while swerving over the rumble strip on the side of the highway.

    Automatic High Beams

    ^--- this. Though even in suburbs I never see them come on unless I'm in an area completely devoid of ambient light. I disabled them after a few weeks.

    Disable nannies on 2020 4runner

    The LDA is fairly sensitive, especially toward the passenger side though I leave it on anyway. I dont find it that annoying. The PCS I left at the default and it's only had a false alarm twice in 6 months and neither time did it try to stop on it's own. There is a step even less sensitive which...

    Alternatives to SiriusXM

    I use Iheartradio - they have a bunch of their own stations, commercial free with much better quality than SXM, no fee, and it doesnt cut out every time you drive past a big building or overpass.

    You dont have to actually pull the handle, just touch the inside of it
