    OEM 2020+ headunit with Apple Carplay/Android Auto into 2014-2019

    Mic After Swap After making the swap I have been trying to troubleshoot one issue. The microphone volume is really low and unusable for calls. I tried disconnecting the battery for a half hour to reset everything. Reset the head unit, re-paired the phone, and even added some soundproofing...

    OEM 2020+ headunit with Apple Carplay/Android Auto into 2014-2019

    Couldn't wait for the weekend and got it installed tonight. All seems to work. Have the same issues with the left and right steering wheel controls not working as expected and had some issues with the phone/siri not working at first. Updated the head unit and rebooted the phone, and all is well...

    OEM 2020+ headunit with Apple Carplay/Android Auto into 2014-2019

    The harness arrives tomorrow so will tackle this over the weekend. Thanks for the tips. One of the items I keep reading is that if I had a unit with GPS I should replace it with a 3.0 unit that also has GPS. Am I going to run into other functionality issues going from having GPS to a unit...

    OEM 2020+ headunit with Apple Carplay/Android Auto into 2014-2019

    21 Headunit Just scored a basic non-nav, non-jbl from a local salvage yard for $80! Will go into an 18 SR5 Prem that had GPS. Couple very minor blemishes. Not that I need the Toyota GPS, but anyone know if it is possible to use the GPS module from the 18 with the 21? Assuming it is a no since...

    Audio Install Question: Maestro with Aftermarket Amp

    Landed a sweet deal on a Kenwood DMX957XR with a Maestro, just waiting on the Toyota harnesses and dash kit to arrive. Already have an amp installed to the factory head with line level inputs through a t-harness. Going to swap that over to the pre-amp outputs on the Kenwood. The question I...

    Headlights “blink”

    Same here, thought I was just seeing things with nose dive when braking and shadows playing tricks on me. Also have done the h9 swap, but all other electrical is stock. Original battery, almost three years old now.

    FM Radio Skipping

    Anyone ever experience what sounds like a disc skipping with FM stations? Seems as if the buffering/pause feature of the radio is glitching in my 18. Maybe a refresh of the software would fix it, or just give me enough of a justification to replace the entune garbage.

    Replacement for USB relocation

    Used this one because it covers the light when not in use. And even when it is in use, the cord blocks most of the light. Amazon.com: E-Bro New 12-24V Car Dual USB Port Adapter Charger Cell Phone PDA DVR Input for Toyota

    Remove Web Apps from Entune?

    Anyone know if you do this reset to get rid of the apps, does it also roll back the installed updates that the dealer has applied and complete a true factory reset back to the original software, or does this just remove user settings and extra bloatware?

    Focal IS 690TOY Front Speakers Designed for Toyota

    I did not add the volume control, and I do not really see the need for it. Yes, the audio sounds best when volume is turned up about mid-way, but I thought of it this way, when I have the volume turned down, I am not concentrating on the intricacies of the track, when I am rocking out, it makes...

    Beat-Sonic Apple CarPlay for Entune?

    Check out this tread on the last couple pages. Seems like an expensive band aid that is not a great solution. I JUST missed Apple Carplay...

    PSA: Your Amazon Hi-beam LED headlights are garbage.

    I had XD leds in both the high and lows with the anti-flicker driver for drls for almost a year. That was until I drove in a snow storm last weekend. Very next day I ripped them out and went back to the H9 conversion. When I first installed the leds I tweaked the clocking numerous times trying...

    Focal IS 690TOY Front Speakers Designed for Toyota

    [Question, who felt that they still needed a sub once they installed an amp with these speakers? I can't decide if I want to go ahead with a 5 channel amp and sub or just get a 4 channel and be done with it. I did focals in all locations (the gate I used the non-toyota specific cheaper...

    I JUST missed Apple Carplay...

    What model number do you have on your unit? Purchased mine in November of 2017, is a 2018 model and have model 510139, which is at the very top of the list in the TSB.

    Cargo Cover

    Have a third row and mine came with one. Not sure if there are different sizes. I never use it though because no place to put it when the third row is up.
