Bought this head unit (and just finished installing) because of this video! Works great!! 😀 Do you know where we can go to see how to install a front camera on this head unit? I can't find anything on my searches today. 🤔
It's nice how much easier this is compared to all the stereos I've upgraded in older cars over the years. Luckily with my audi and Benz and vw I'm pretty happy with them. Once you hear bang and olufsen it's hard not to want high quality audio. Course I also have a old 90s cutlass convertible that has subs in the trunk the old school way. Never been a truck guy myself I use a conversion gmc van to tow my boat which has saved me from having to mess with a tent or camper since it basically is like a camper anyhow. They certainly have made a good quality product. Hopefully the touch screen works well
You never seem to disappoint! Absolutely hit every point and question I had. Can wait to get mine.
That looks awesome! You mention it comes with car play, is it wireless? Does it have android auto as well?
Pretty cool, will check into this.
I have a 2022 Tacoma. I installed Pedal Commander shortly after I got the truck and I love it, highly recommend. Took less than 10 min to install. Just pay attention to read instructions and have key fob away from truck when you install.
Does not increase HP, it just increases throttle response. Huge difference.
Also, not a paid advertisement. There are other brands to increase throttle response. I got this one and it works.
I went with the OTT (Overland Torque Tune) Much better than the pedal commander, look into it when you get a chance. 👊🏼
Instructions looked great and easy. Love the way they laid it out.
Install loved good.
will it work with the steering wheel buttons ?
Nice vid. Boot time? How many camera will it take?
I like your rims a lot never seen them before they def look great on your your rig 👍👍👍👍👍
4Runner rims. OEM Toyota, or you can get aftermarket ones.
If you could do an update of the unit as you get used to it. How the wireless car play works? How does the music sound? How the gps looks and works. does it get annoying to use touchscreen to adjust ac? Thanks 🙏
I believe the buttons on the bottom also control the fan
Cool head unit and nice intall video. Plug and play is about my speed. 😂
Just found your channel for solution of solar panel battery maintainer, but i have 2nd gen so radio even though nice won't work for me
I have a 2019 taco and I upgraded to the 2020-2023 headunit that has CarPlay.
How much bro?
@@DemonSlayer1234-love I found the none jbl Navi headunit for $250! And then an adapter harness was another $240. Finding them that low is uncommon but it happens
Installed this same unit in my truck. How did you resolve the issues with the volume resetting to 100% each time you start the truck? I can reset to a low setting, but each time the unit is powered off, then on, its always set to 100%.......
Oh, wow! This is awesome! Thanks for sharing such an amazing product! Will definitely be getting this for my 2019 Tacoma TRD OR. Best looking, most functional unit I’ve seen yet for the 3rd Gen Taco.
What lift do you have on your truck?
So does it work with an Apple iPhone?
Are you able to download new apps?
Nice unit ,temperature showing in Celsius? Can temperature be converted to Fahrenheit?
Do the heated seats work?
Looks great. I have two questions though. I don’t see the seat heating buttons on the new dash and will my expedition rail mount still be able to be used.
I was thinking the same thing!
@Skyautovision-AuCAR
Does this work with Tacomas that have heated seats?
@@jake_berry according to the manufacturer it does. I am on the fence about ordering it. They never replied to my question about warranty info.
1 year warranty
@@jake_berry Have you figured out where the seat heater buttons would be located? i’m eyeing the same head unit, just prefer the manual buttons/knobs.
Need the Scotty info so I can set up my phone like that
How long did it take for ur order to arrive?
A week👍🏼
is there any other video after you use it for a while ?? if you found any performance issue or has anyone else have purchase this Aucar head unit and have performance review ?? there are no many reviews on this product yet and I still dont fully trust china electronics on my Tacoma
Love the unit - almost sold
Wish they bring the orange Bessel too.
I love the look of the orange on my taco.
Also the MIC is huge and ugly..
Not sure why they can’t make the original mic work with the unit
Question:
How’s the Sound of the radio
What’s the RMS or peak Power per speaker ?
can the unit upgrade the software ?
Once outdated with so many apps
How will this work in the future?
I Just Bought It. I Used Your Promo Code And Got $100 Off Of The Bill.. Thank You..
Looks good. But I really hate that the HVAC controls are now touch screen. I like real buttons and knobs.
The HVAC has both, buttons across the bottom and touch screen 👍🏼
what if someone breaksin & damages the tough screen? NO AC or Heat
@@jafarrehman6136 Replace it 🤷♂
What’s the price for the unit?
Click the link in the description. 👍🏼
How does the sound compares to factory unit?
Great
I love this!
Can you tell me more about the quad lock & Scotty ram ball mount? Or do you already have a video for that? I would really like to do that set up in my truck.
And the mic, did you mount it overhead or do I see it peaking out near the control dash?
looks cool I want to do the same upgrade on my tacoma too so you guess this one is better than the linkswell or the same because the linkswell is more expensive like 500 more so I don't know if the price is worth it
I got one and so far I cannot give you an exact rating just yet. I’m not sure if my audio improved or gotten worse. I may need to adjust the equalizer settings but it’s hard to learn it. I hope there’s a tutorial video out there to assist in this.
When I turn up my volume the audio becomes distorted is the same for you?
Does it also include all steering wheel controls? and what about Sirus radio?
Very nice unit.How about the control settings for door locks ,parking sensors and daylight running lights? Are they still accessible ?
Yep
Amazing video and thinking of getting this now. Can you let me know what the start up time is on this? I've seen a big issue with some of the aftermarket displays is that it takes a prolonged time before you can start using it after the vehicle starts. Also, what's the reliability been like since you done the install? Have you noticed any drops in connection with apple car play, audio issues, mic issues, or anything else that has had an impact on you while driving or going off road?
Nice video! Did you ever look at the Stinger unit other creators have installed? That’s the one that caught my eye, but its not a priority right now
i did hear you correctly when you said you can add cameras to this system? if so how many?
Hey dude, what is your honest thoughts about the 3rd gen tacoma gear hunting, engine sluggish? Hope to hear from you soon because I'm so confused which to buy next year, the 4th gen which is turbo or the bullet proof 3rd gen! Anyway I like your new head unit, look like factory. I'm looking forward to your next upgrade.
Easy fix. OTT tune and your problem is solve.
Where can I find a local retailer that sells these
Did this actually give you dual zone climate control? Can you show with temps that it split the sides?
It looks awesome. Is it better than the Kenwood DDX9907XR for sound system? It does seem like it since it’s newer.
People are complaining for missing physical buttons and this dude says..ffff it, i want a touch screen 😅
What about heated seats options.?
Yes the unit supports heated seats and the heated mirrors
Do you know does it have wireless android auto and does it have controls for heated seats?
Is your audio distorted when turning the volume up?
Nope 👍🏼
I have the same orange interior. It’s a shame they don’t make this radio with the orange trim.
How did you re-add your Ram Mounts? Did you have to Cut the Metal Rail mount ? And just re-screw it in or??
Please do a 1 year review or 6 months
what years are the gen 3?
Does it retain the steering wheel controls and vehicle customization options?
I got a front camera. I wonder if I can set it up with this head unit.
Do heating seat controls work?
Did you get the 360 package or the non 360 cam package. I dont have 360 but i do have a aftermarket front cam so im not sure which one to get
For the cameras. What if you have the Tacoma pro would the 360 camera work ?
Do you still keep the eagle style camera view? And does this work with heated seats?
Are you able to track miles to empty and mpg/ecometer?
Does it have RCA Pre Outs if you are using external amplifiers? I got rid of the junk JBL stuff and upgraded all the speakers to Focal and JL audio amps with a 9 inch pioneer head unit. It's fine but the bigger screen would be nice.
yep! 👍🏼
Does this head unit allow you to have your side mirror defrost. I didn't see the button for it anymore
Did you lost any function in the dash ???
Hey brother, what is that wrist watch that you’re wearing and have you made any EDC videos on your channel?
Does it play the regular am/fm radio ?
Does your Tacoma have the heated sideview mirrors? If so, does it still work with this H/U?
yeah im wondering the samething
Does this have HDMI port?
No
It's Been A While.. How Is That Stereo Doung? Still Working Well?
Is that the Taco Garage DMM you have for your phone mount? That's what I have and I was wondering if it would still be compatible with the new head unit's bezel.
Off the subject, where did you get that phone mount with the ball and clamp arm?
Do you have a link for the Scotty ram balls and quad lock?
3 days ago, can I get an update
What about the Tacomas that have bilateral air control and heated seats? I don’t see that individual control on this unit so am I losing a couple thousand dollars worth of value by putting this in?
It’s all there in the Unit , just go to the website and look 👍🏼
Would this void my warranty on a 2023?
Does it have rca outputs ?
Yep 👍🏼
How are the 360 cameras displayed?
Anyone know if they plan on selling it on Amazon? If so I’ll buy one 👍
How long was your ordering process? My orders been "processing" for 5 days.
Yes mine also getting a little worried
@@henrystuart2823 I ended up contacting them. Seems like they had no idea about my order. They asked for the make/model and a photo of the dash.
@@marzboundyes same thing had to send them a picture of the dash. There site says it has shipped so will see
Just got word mine shipped and will be here Friday
UPDATE: Ordered mine on Sept 3rd. Just got my delivery ETA set for Sept 23. So anybody that wants one of these, be prepared to wait 3-4 weeks. Straight from China 😑
Anything hard about install? Antenna placement and or Mic placement
Nope, An extra hand would have been helpful when i was connecting the unit but other than that, it was very easy 🤙🏼
Lost me at the factory microphone 🎤 won't work.....
I have a different type of aftermarket screen but I pulled an empty button cover I wasn't using, drilled a hole the size of the aftermarket mic, and glued it in from the back. Looks clean.
The real question is, is the newer mic of higher quality
Sorry but what is the brand and model of the infotainment? Maybe I missed it
@ramonavalos1276 Aucar I think it's the brand.
Mine sounds like ass never use it sooo🤷🏽♂️
Does phone work on Bluetooth? Or do you have to plug in play?
Bluetooth 👍🏼
I’m slow but iPhone works for this right and I’m able to use Apple CarPlay or it is just specifically android?
Does this support Apple Car Play
Yes, I showed it in the video 👍🏼
@Kayak USA
DO the staring wheel controls still work?
Yes sir, everything works great 👍🏼
Probably to save money in the short and longterm, just trade in that ride for any fourth gen Tacoma.🤷♂️
Never understood how they cannot make these work with the oem mics???
🔥👍
My taco mic has been garbage since I bought the truck, how does this mic seem to be?
I would like the same question answered. Does the “Heart” mean yes??
Getting rid of my knobs for a touch screen? Nope, that's a deal breaker. I'd rather have a bit smaller screen and retain my knobs.
TINY! … so quickly we forget single din radio decks
The mod looks great! That being said, you want to sell the oem head unit? I need the original 8” infotainment
Anyone getting a red haze in the screen? I just installed mine. And at first it was fine. But after about an hour there is a constant red haze on the screen. Almost like a red backlight
Can we finally play movies?
And play Nintendo 😳
Dope. But i dont care enough to want this.
Coupon Code doesn't work :(
just checked, it is working.
@@Skyautovision-AuCAR It's working now thanks!
@@Skyautovision-AuCAR the coupon code doesn’t work on the full size Toyota tundra unit……
@@thfourme Now it works
@@Skyautovision-AuCAR it only works on the Tacoma unit and not on the Tundra unit….
Look more like a tacoma with tesla screen, look good but not digging it!
Code not working
just checked, it is working.
Thanks!
Nice. Only negative if your a CD fan. Looks like you can’t play your CDs or DVDs any longer.
would this work for my 2022 tacoma? thanks
Yes it will
I have a Toyota Tacoma 2018 SR5
Personal opinion, big head units like this look tacky and out of place. Like you glued an ipad to your dash. I prefer a flush look myself. To each their own though. All things considered, that is a very nice unit, just not for me.
You lost me when you said it takes out the AC controls and puts them on screen that's just too far for me to go.
