At the price point, it would make sense to go aftermarket. You could do an Alpine Halo9 and do amps & speakers for what Toyota wants for the head unit.
2020 does fit the 14 to 19 models I’ve already done it . Plug and play with the kit I purchased
Broooo which kit? Please and thank you!!!! Maybe you can reply with the link.
Yes I’m looking for the wiring adapters as well. Let me know.
Aftermarket is the way to go. I've owned 3 tundras and each was blessed with aftermarket stereos with android auto. If you s are willing to invest just a little more, I recommend new door component speakers, an amplifier and a subwoofer. The features and sound will amaze you. All for about 1k if you are savvy enough to install yourself.
At that price you should just get a 2020 vehicle.
I’m just gonna upgrade to the Alpine with Wireless Apple CarPlay
Adding an aftermarket head unit like an Alpine or Pioneer in the $600 range is totally possible.
You might have another $200-$300 in dash kit and wiring harness adapters to retain steering wheel controls.
$1,000 all in with installation-
Not bad for a head unit that’s light years ahead of a more expensive OE head unit.
Great info, great visuals, great discussion...awesome share. Thanks Tundra Dude!
This is 100% feasible and 100% cost-effective to do. I purchased an Entune 3.0 radio with navigation for $200 from eBay. Then I purchased an auto harness house plug-and-play harness for just over $200. With a little over $400. I have a new head unit that fits in the dash perfectly. I don't have anything that is protruding out. And it's fully integrated. What you are neglecting to mention in this video is when you go to an aftermarket head unit. All the integration and extra modules that are required to make the truck communicate with the radio properly. And even still, you're going to easily spend a minimum of $600 on an aftermarket head unit to gain carplay and Android auto. Yes, I will agree, an aftermarket head unit will make the speaker sound better verse the OE but you can always fix that with a plug-and-play amplifier upgrade and speaker upgrades.
I did the same for my 2018 tundra with a 2021 radio and conversion harness, for a bit more than you paid and so glad I did. I couldn’t find the Entune 3.0 app to download, did you have any issue? CarPlay and all previous features work fantastic.
@@marksnider3808 I'm not sure what you would need the Entune 3.0 app for? I bought the radio, just waiting on the harness to arrive hopefully Monday and then I will be installing. I've already upgraded all of my speakers So eventually I'll put an amplifier in and really upgrade the sound of the truck
@@marksnider3808 however, I will say that I know there is a software update that's available on certain versions. Since my 19 Tundra came with navigation. I made sure to buy a head unit that I was able to have the factory navigation as well. Even though I probably won't ever use it since I have Android auto. But I'm not going to downgrade the radio because of having Android auto and carplay
My original 2018 radio had navigation as well- and more importantly the antenna. I didn’t think I would want or need the Toyota navigation with the new radio and CarPlay. It all worked so well decided any way to retrofit the new radio with the outboard navigation unit- which was another easily obtained OEM part on eBay, and more importantly needed to retrofit with a new additional crossover harness add-on to support. I did already download and install the updated application code to the new radio. I’ll update again when I retrofit the new navigation unit- hopefully this weekend. Who did you get your crossover cable from? I got mine from C & H.
BTW…the old navigation unit was built-in to the old 2018 radio- Sirius XM was the old outboard unit. The new 2021 OEM radio has Sirius XM built-in, but the navigation is the outboard unit. Seems confusing but true.
At $4k for the cheapest version with no option to return the unit if it doesn’t work, that’s a hard no. I’m perfectly happy with my 2014s head unit. iTunes works just fine via Bluetooth. So does Spotify.
Considering the amount issues that these units have Toyota should at least make a harness adapter that would allow the customer to upgrade.
I'm fine with my system on my 2019. Thanks for the info though.
I'm keeping my stock head unit on my '18 DC, thank you very much. If you are merely looking for a bigger screen and the addition of Apple Carplay its not worth any amount of money. And if you're an audiophile like me, going to another stock hu even if newer doesn't make any sense as stock units have crappy audio signals and power output anyways. If you're after better audio sound quality, the aftermarket is the only way to go. I replaced all 8 speakers on mine with Focals, added a 10in JL audio sub, JL audio 700w amp, JL audio DSP for stock hu integration and finally a JL Twk signal processor to clean the signals. Also added sound deadening material on all the door speakers. Difference is night and day. Total cost is about $2500 (shout out to Safe and Sound for awesome installation!) No stock tundra system will sound as good as mine, 2020 or newer
Can you post a pic of that head unit(installed)? I have a 2019 TRD Pro. I want to update my head unit.
Lol, Ive already seen them much much much cheaper on eBay. I’m guessing from wrecked truck. Eventually there will be more wrecked trucks radios available. We just need the wiring adapter available.....
Reliable sources tell me the upcoming Tundra Hipster edition will have a turntable! You'll be able to enjoy your vinyl collection on the road!
🤣🤣🤣
You forgot to mention the disco ball and laser light package!
Can get the fuzzy dice for the mirror and tie dye seat covers to round it all out.
Forget about the radio what about the shitty speakers. The speaker in the driver side door of my platinum sounds like somebody kicking a tin can down the road when I play a song JBL Should be ashamed of themselves
Agree , I installed alpine speakers in doors , the 2 speakers in dash alpine don’t offer , some terrible sound . Kinda disappointed.
Tim I’m also getting some reverberation which makes the speakers sound blown so I have to put some sound deadening material in each door.
I replaced the speakers in my 19 PRO with Alpines, an amplifier, and the JL Audio Stealthbox (subwoofer) and am very pleased. Next to go is the crappy stock head unit to be replaced with the Pioneer AVIC-W8600 NEX unit.
@@SColmant that was an $1,100 hu, not including the harness, amps, or speaker upgrades....
Ouch!
No way for even a fraction of that kind of money. Also, I'm a proud Dinosaur, love my CD's, when I want to hear something, that is exactly what I hear.
I don't get it either. My 16 has bluetooth, and connectivity for iPods or whatever. Sirius, Works for me. I did change my Head unit for a Navigation unit because I hate using a phone or separate unit.
Hell no, I wouldn't retrofit with the 2020 head unit. At that price point, you're better off going with a customized aftermarket unit.
No way would I upgrade at that price. I would go aftermarket for my 2016. If I had 4k to burn for the radio I'd throw that down on a 2020 TRD Pro Tundra. It's a shame the 2014-2019 trucks can't be upgraded to Entune 3.0.
Hi Tundra Dude,Wes here again. About 2 weeks after I bought my 2014 Tundra that was one of the things that I wanted to mod was the radio. I do not like that entune and it is my first experience around a entune. The aftermarket radio I have my eye on is the Tesla Android radio. It has options of a 10" or a 12" screen, the price is about $600 to $800 for the unit. I've seen reviews and videos of people that put them in their Tundra and for the most part there hasn't been any bad issues. To be able to mirror my phone with the unit is worth it, then I can use Google Maps instead of the navigation on the Tundra.
What if I want upgrade my 2018 tundra to the new 2022 tundra body and chassis and engine?
I could just put a boss elite with a 10 in screen for $399.... a sony xav 8100 for $750....hell even go for the high end after market units that are 1300 to 1600 and get WIRELESS android auto and carplay. So many options out there if you want android auto/carplay do research. Clutchfield is a good place to start. They let you know what fits in your truck, and sell the dash kits and wiring harness to make most installs plug and play.
You don’t have to repin it, you need an “integration” or “reverse harness” for the 14-19, and the same for the 20-21. Merge, I just dunno about steering wheel controls
Plot twist, I'm trying to get rid of my 2020 head unit with aftermarket. So far nobody has one.
any luck?
@@captain15642 none, absolutely disasters.
Did you check out the option from Alpine?
do not like the look of it@@TundraDude34
The stock unit in my 19 Tundra is trash. I have been patiently awaiting the release of the Pioneer AVIC-W8600NEX head unit. It just became available for sale this month. I will be having it installed in my 2019 Tundra TRD PRO within the next two weeks. The cost is $1,200 for the unit, $210 for wiring, and $235 for the install. I have had Pioneer AVIC units in the past in other vehicles and have been very pleased with them. I am confident that it is superior to the units Toyota offers in their 2020 vehicles.
I just picked up a 2021 tundra, coming from a Dodge Challenger and honestly man this infotainment system is so embarrassingly bad. I love the truck despite of that though. On my challenger, navigation guidance interrupts AM/FM radio and XM. And you could also control the volume of guidance and music separately as if they were on 2 channels. With the tundra it just seems like the tech is really behind the curve.
Definitely tough coming from UConnect, which is the best system out there in my opinion
@@TundraDude34 yeah I completely agree. But you never know what’s on the horizon with Toyota. Hell, maybe the next gen of infotainment software in the new generation tundra will be made available to all of us in an update. Mechanically I think Toyota is far ahead but they need to close the gap with their competitors as far as tech goes.
Love my 19 tundra stereo. I use my phone for all those apps. I like my gps without my phone
Autoharnesshouse has entune 2.0 to 3.0 harness plug n play
The factory system in my ‘17 works just fine. I Bluetooth music off my phone anyway.
Give up the CD player........no way sports fans.
James installed my upgraded alarm and remote start that the engine stays on when you open the door at the dealer on my 2019 Pro.
zdiver1 didn’t really understand your whole comment? Thx
@@tundrawhisperer4821 3:59 Kartunes James Scheppelmann.
Well damn thanks for the info, thought it would of been possible... but oh well
Absolutely NO! I am however thinking of the newest generation Tesla style system/head unit with the largest 15 inch screen. It has integrated electronic/digital AC/heat controls also. They run about $550-$750.
Just add a dasaita... 10 inch, android and apple integration, full access to Android apps, better sound, canbus included so all steering wheel buttons works, 3 usbs, can add front camera easily... And it's $490 from Amazon
I added this one plus an oemaudioplus system to my platinum and both the sound and functionality are EXCELLENT
Have a question for you. Just got a 2020 Tundra SR5. When I downloaded Toyota+Alexa. I found that when I downloaded the program, I was required to give permission for Alexa to record audio. Do you know why?
Aftermarket headunits with apple car play is what I would do.
What I hate the most about my 3.0 on my 2020 is the album art disappears when I take the truck out of park. Toyota says it's a distraction but I find it more of a distraction with it disappearing because I have to read the song/album/artist info where before I could tell by the album art. The blame it on the NHTSA but my 2019 Suburban at work doesn't do it
Yes ... Insanely expensive... 4500 for the new radios where I work... And the harnesses range from 1k to 3k as well... Either stick w oem by year or get an aftermarket replacement, but be smart and know that I get what u pay for... If u put a 150$ unit in you will get exactly that amd may have to replace down the road again... Buy something quality amd that has been tested and reviewed
Look for a wrecked tundra at a breakers yard and see if you can buy the head unit there
After market is a much better choice. With the maestro system you don't lose any of the functionality either.
There's no way they will upgrade older units, even if they could they wouldn't.
I would try it just to keep the appearance. But the price would have to drop down to a couple hundred bucks. Right now they are on ebay at about $1000. Just give it time.
Forget the price, Is it compatible. Yes it will fit in the cavity, but are the wire harnesses the same. If they are, will it still utilize the usb in the 2019 for Apple Carplay to work. Everyone's talking about the price, I'm giving mine away, but again, will it work is the question.
At that price...save for a supercharger instead
That's a lift kit and tires o my goodness 4k. Wow... not including accessories thanks for the question sir.
KENWOOD DNR-1007XR .. works great
For that price a good down payment on a new truck.
You need to plug your phone into the car for the apple car play and the sound is very underwhelming. The jbl system is crap, buy an aftermarket head unit. Just my two cents
The unit is cool but not that cool. A better upgrade is to upgrade your speakers. That's the best thing you can do for your truck and add a amp. plus you can buy any head unit you want with waaaaay more features for less!
Is there any way the firmware could be upgraded on a 2019 unit? What are the new harnesses providing? I did see a Wifi option on the screen, could that have something to do with it?
After browsing Sparks parts website for my radio (2019 Limited) as well as the JBL version,($4200) I knew the price for the Apple CarPlay version would be up there. With enough interest, someone will engineer an aftermarket deck with comparable technology.
Mistaed2019 There is a plug and play module available. You hit the power button twice and the module takes over, CarPlay on your screen. I saw it on TH-cam last year. Expensive though $450.
Doug Smith 👍🏼Thanks, I’ll look into that.
@@dougsmith7195 Are you talking about Beat Sonic?
alienation Not sure, I saw it last year, to much money to give it another thought.
No brainer simply for features you get with aftermarket. WIRELESS Carplay, HD screen, mirrorcast, Flac audio files, and you dont lose absolutely any of your steering wheel controls?
Pro tip, you can rearrange your Apple Carplay homescreen in your settings. Place pandora on home screen
But the new headunit does look better than all aftermarket units except for the tesla style unit. All aftermarket units look recessed and dont sit right or they look like garbage, a la halo unit.
wsmcook i do agree that the flush look is best. Cant argue with that. Still a clear choice for me. Wireless carplay alone is a game changer. I’ve had wired carplay for 6 years and there were days i didnt even plug in because of how there really is no perfect place to put your phone with cable connected to it without eventually damaging cable from bending. HD screen looks really nice as well. And the audio, incredibly better than the stock headunit
Simpler to just get the new system in your next trade.
I appreciate your video, I would like to upgrade my 2018 tundra with a 10.1 screen head unit that I bought, can they make all the tundra features connect to it?
You would have to contact the manufacturer and see what they say. May be missing a feature or 2 with the new unit
Interested in your feedback on the Telsa large screen upgrade. Any thoughts?
Ive never used it, but owners ive spoken to dont seem to like it too much
My 2019 Tundra doesn’t have CarPlay, what a let down. Another reason to buy a Cummins.
Aftermarket or buy the interface module
But nobody pays dealership prices for takeoffs. Wouldn't you buy the headunit from someone who has upgraded their own truck and now has one in their garage. Secondly, I think the account from James is from a business perspective. In other words it's extremely expensive to go through and manufacture harness adapters between the 2 sets of pin clips that it's not a possible business move but for 1 guy to buy a few clips on ebay and some colored wire. The cost is just for yourself and you have no intention to make money off the endeavor. It's possible. Nobody's done it yet. Just my 2 cents.
Ps, yes I'll try it once they drop down in price due to accidents/upgrades. The inot looks better than all the aftermarket ones.
I had a 2019 Limited. I love the CarPlay. It was part of the reason I upgraded.
Insane amount of money for a head unit...and people want bigger and bigger screen on their vehicles with more and more tech. $$$ No thanks $$$
Request: Install and review the Pedal Commander. It needs a review from your channel because I’d trust your input. 🙏
Waste of money. You already have a PC in the Tundra, otherwise known as the Tow/Haul button.
alienation Lame. Throw up a video of your Tundra with a pedal commander and show us why it’s a waste of money.
Hey Jackson I made a couple videos on my channel about the Pedal Commander! Feel free to check them out! I know I’m not TD34 but it’s an honest review!
Toyota is becoming the Apple of trucks. Oh, you want a new truck? Sure, $60k and you get an 8" screen. Toyota knows how to milk the cows till the udders fall off.
Get the Alpine iLX-F309 and you'll have it all and then some. Plus, a bigger, better screen that doesn't look like something from 2004...
No! Why would I spend that kind of money for so little gain! CRAZY EXPENSIVE for not much!
I have a Kenwood Dnx996xr with the maestro link and it works + looks like factory installed. You get Wireless CarPlay which goes great with the wireless charger that I installed in the armrest. Only complaint is about a one minute boot time when starting the truck. How long does it take the head unit on the 2020 to start up? I would love to see that in a future video.
I was able to purchase a 2020 head unit from ebay for about 1.2k. Do you know of any place that is wiling to install it into my 2019 Tundra?
Look on eBay , someone came up with a pnp harness for the 2020 headunit retrofit on older models
It's touchscreen and Bluetooth, I don't need much more than that personally, it's an off-roading truck for me
Not a chance. Way to pricy. I’m content. Besides only listen to music off my IPhone.
My unit keeps dropping calls. Is this something covered by warranty or am I beat?
Have you tried the reset yet?
TundraDude34 I have not. How do I do it. I looked through settings but I don’t see it.
Hold down the power knob for a few sections until reset begins
TundraDude34 thanks bro. I try that reset and see what happens.
I'm more concerned with how it sounds. Couldn't care less about all the gadgets.
They are watching u
Hey Dude, you're now in the merchandize business. Get someone to manufacture some of those Tundra/Texas ball caps. I'll buy one!
Ill see what i can do! There are more options at my teespring store but no hats yet
Mark Check out bunker branding, local business that does quality work
Your prolly better off getting a used 2020
I’d first tell someone to upgrade to a Kenwood or Alpine that’s Apple Car Play supported. Another option is this: th-cam.com/video/RvN58WY-ceI/w-d-xo.html which is a a expensive item from Korea that allows Apple Car play on entune
Not worth doing. My 17 radio is fine.
No way too expensive
😳
nope
Hell no. Lol
