Just ordered this head unit for my 2016 4Runner. Wish me luck! 🤞🏼

Finally another video on this stereo. Can you do another video walking through the interface and apps. Using split screen, CarPlay, tuning the radio, phone calls etc. I’m still skeptical of these android units

@Forged_Garage 3 ай бұрын

Yes! Planning to make a video on it, on all of the android head units i’ve use between all of my cars, this is the fastest on, especially on connectin to carplay, or when connecting to wifi.

@Forged_Garage 3 ай бұрын

With the factory camera it’s acceptable, it degrade because the video gets bigger, birds eye view still works but i can’t access the side and front camera manually. But im totally okay with it.

Does the AC vent relocation change how much air comes out? I live in the South and its HOT... Also, I am looking to get one like this, but I really just want a new head unit for Apple Car Play, would you recommend this one, or are there cheaper, better options for that?

@Forged_Garage 3 ай бұрын

The amount of air coming out decreased, but the air coming out on the side vents feels stronger than before, in general the temp inside is gets cold like normal, i used it for about 45mins drive and i don’t feel any significant difference on the temp still cold. There are cheaper options but not with this kind of screen

Do you feel like it gets dim enough at night? Can the screen be turned off? I just don't want my night time serenity interrupted. :P

@Forged_Garage 20 күн бұрын

For my liking i wish it can get a little bit dimmer on its current dimmest settings, but it doesn’t bother me that much, setting it to a dark mode and a dark wallpaper kinda helps.

I have one and it’s amazing. My only problem is I can’t get my SIM card to work. Tried two different ones. It recognizes the sim and I update the apn but I can’t connect to a service.

Connect all harness that came with the box, make sure they are clip in properly, you should hear the click when pushing them in, make sure the can bus box is clip in too.

@@Forged_Garage can I use it with the vehicles gps antena? I don't want to use an extra dongle or run the GPS antena external or at a higher point when the vehicle has one built in. I was able to use my vehicles gps antena by buying a separate wire that connected the vehicles antena to the dasaita unit I have. Wondering if it would work the same way.

What is the difference between the T10 and the T12

@Forged_Garage 4 күн бұрын

Just the Screen size, specs options is the same

@_WATTS_Gamer 3 күн бұрын

@@Forged_Garage So I see that the 10 keeps the original vents and the clock. The other one diverts the vents to new ones correct and basically extends taller than the 10? The 12 seems to look very sleek. I think I prefer that look.
