THE BEST interior upgrade for the 5th Gen 4Runner 2010-2021

In this video I will show you why I think the T10 unit is the best interior upgrade/modification that you can do for your 5th gen 4Runner.
The T10 unit is available at:
cartrimhome.com/pre-sale-t10-...
If you purchase the T10, message Sevag Merdinian or (KingSev) with your order number and he will add you to the CTH/T10 user Facebook group
After some research I have found that the T-Mobile SIM is your best bet for cellular coverage in the USA (I probably wouldn’t use anything else)
After some testing with the built in mic I did notice a reduction in quality from the stock 4Runners mic. There are ways to improve this which you can read up on in the T10 facebook user group.
The T10 unit is great for people who are tech savvy and enjoy modifying/customize their ride.
Hope you enjoyed the video!

I put the T9 (so model before this) in 2 years ago. I don’t know how much has improved between the two models, but I do know the T10 has some solid features like birdseye view camera ability and is more powerful. I will say the stereos can be a little finicky, and it’s pretty much a guarantee that you will spend some time on the Facebook group getting it running just the way you like it. That being said, the features make it totally worth it and a vast improvement over the entune system. If you want you can pick up a Bluetooth OBD2 sensor and display info like trans temp, oil pressure, etc. on the T9/10. The screen does get some serious glare and is hard to see with polarized lenses on, but still worth it IMO

That head unit is better than OEM. You get Bluetooth CarPlay and you can run KZfaq videos. Both make that mod special. I often use KZfaq as a podcast listening to videos but the OEM head unit doesn’t permit you to stream KZfaq content.

Was your stock head unit JBL amplified? The reason why I’m asking is because I have 2016 4Runner and my stock head unit is JBL amplified. I ended up replacing it with an aftermarket head unit and I’ve had nothing but problems with it? Long story short, I get sound intermittently. Have you had any issues with your T-10 unit?

Trust me - The OEM navigation in my 2018 sr5 Premium is not worth the time to even use it! for 4 years I have used a Garmin just below because the Entunes unit is so worthless.

Reason for pressing the rst button was that the unit wouldn’t connect to my iphone properly. After pressing the button the unit connected no problem. My screen has got a small amount of dust behind it which isn’t noticeable 99.8% of the time only when the sun comes through the side window on a certain angle do I notice it. Also I’ve found that polarized glasses make the unit/screen difficult to see.
