Do you remember how the call quality was? Saw someone else using this brand for 3 years and loved it, but said call quality was so poor it basically wasn't worth using the phone through the stereo.

I actually do not remember the call quality, I felt it was feature packed but flawed.

Did you lose all the features on the stock radio? Such as the programming of the door locks and lighting controls? Are those retained after the radio swap? What about the maintenance reminders?

Hi, Thanks for a very informative video of head unit install on this car. I have a question can this also fit a Toyota prius prime 2017 which looks the same dash as the 2016 model. Could you confirm the screen dimensions as when I look on the seicane website it shows the screen size is to big for my vehicle, my opening is 230mm x 130mm, but the website is saying its 237mm x 137mm.

I have a Prius 3 2016. It comes with the 2015 GPS software. I tried to purchase a 2021 GPS software card and it worked for a month before it then screwed up the dash system until I removed and put in the old card. Though this is a new Carplay system, will I still have the 2015 GPS attached so will have the old GPS screen? Or does this mirror the GPS on the iPhone 12 plus so no need to use the GPS on the new dash system?

Pls let me know)

@@scottoesterling4659 I am not sure where the jbl amp is placed but one solution is to run wires from head unit to the amp location connecting directly to the speakers. On some vehicles a non standard speaker impedance is used forcing owners to change the speakers along with head unit. Another solution is an amp interface unit such as this one (for older toyotas) perhaps an interface is out there for gen 4.

Scott, I noticed the blue wire that goes to the can decoder box and the antenna power lead connects to an unused plug and is not powered. I believe this is a wiring error from the factory. If the can decoder box is working and correct can bus settings entered the included can bus decoder *should* allow sound to be heard through jbl amp system.
