You can get any aftermarket with a screen and video in to work with everything your OEM head unit does with extra modules. I'm with Tyler on this, I think the OEM head unit is great, and respeakered my truck around that unit. It was not a nightmare, and can be done for short coin. I spent a little more than short coin, and am very happy with my results.Has anyone replaced the OEM radio for an aftermarket one? What do you like about it? What don't you like about it? Have you had any issues with anything? Does the reverse camera still work?
But I think your phone needs to be plugged in to use the car play stuffThat one has it all.
How is Bluetooth not standard for that in 2018But I think your phone needs to be plugged in to use the car play stuff
This is well put, IMO. I don’t understand it.I bought the whole JBL/Nav console last June and I can’t stand it. The idea that you can have that nice of a factory head unit that is NOT compatible with Apple or android is baffling to me. And the sat nav is terrible too not to mention Scout Link won’t even function . It’s utilizing Garmin maps yet my 10 year old Garmin Nuvi has better traffic maps. And you have to pull the SD card to update it. The voice controls are terrible as well. I am currently looking in to a Kenwood head using with the maestro data link so I can use Apple CarPlay , Waze, google maps and even digital gage functions
I wrote this in another topic but BeatSonic has something that plugs into the stock head on Gen 3’s allowing you to mirror your iPhone.
I looked at a mirroring device first but i was afraid i would still be handleing my phone while driving. Also, some of the head units are able to tap into your computer and have display gauges for vehicle information. If i do that with the mirror device i have to run an OBD dongle
See if you need to update the software. https://securedp.toyota.com/download-app/getUpdatesI'm ok with the stock unit but I really hate how bluetooth randomly disconnects my iPhone. Anyone know how to fix this?

I haven't had it randomly disconnect so I'm not exactly sure what else it could be.
