The unit arrived promptly and well packaged. Installation took about 90 mins between the instructions (not very good) watching a number of vids on YouTube. Operation takes some learning (I'm old) but the unit functions well and it's a game changer for me. Some understandable operating instructions should be developed and included.
Husband loved it. Easy to put in.
2017 Tacoma, ordered on a Saturday evening, delivered the next day, on a Sunday! I researched a lot of products to get apple carplay. New head unit up to 1500$+. Was a little nervous about the install but videos were excellent. Worked perfect out the gate. I too wish it would automatically connect without having to hold the home button, and not seeing the volume bar is a mild annoyance. Sometimes it takes a couple minutes to connect. BUT, for an after market fix, I don’t expect perfection. VERY happy so far, it makes me a safer driver, never having to look at my phone while driving.
Easy to install and works as advertised. Customer service is
Easy install, my first time installing audio equipment. Works as advertised.
My only question is - do I have to hold the home button to turn on the decoder/Apple Car-play every-time? I wish when I started my truck it would just default to this screen.
Wish I had installed this years ago.
