Cheap & Effective Android Headunit Install In 2011 Toyota Prius

[@patricks.hafersr.8723]

Just got a 2012 prius and this video convinced me I can do this upgrade thank you for works sir Many 🙏🙏🙏Blessings fren...

[@tuned_tunas]

You got this my friend. Anyone can do it especially with that mindset👍🏽

[@iahimk]

Every video skips the part where they bolt on the new head unit. Did you get adapters to bolt it on to the chassis? The OEM radio is held in place by 4 bolts. How does the new one stay in place? 12:11 nice video BTW.

[@ChadSharkeyNursePractitioner]

The android 13 head unit I just bought said you just plug it in after removing the original JBL radio....This looks like a LOT more.

[@tuned_tunas]

Definitely a lot more work if you want to have all the nice features such as car play and a back up camera

[@jabari7995]

Intro is hard 🔥

[@tuned_tunas]

Thanks bro. I appreciate that🙏🏽

[@CemCemmm-r2x]

Thanks dude for a clear and informative video.

[@tuned_tunas]

Glad I could help you out. Power to you👍🏽

[@John2022-i2q]

Nice job! Quick question, that small black box will also control the steering wheel buttons? Or need a separate part just for that?

[@tuned_tunas]

Separate module needed for that. But when you have Bose audio it complicates things

[@MARCELLO6859]

Really great work guy. I would like to replicate this on my Prius but it's too difficult for me. Congrats on your skill.

[@tuned_tunas]

Thanks. I really do appreciate that. But no I started off just messing on my own cars not knowing what knowing what I was doing. We all got to start somewhere. You can do it !!

[@MARCELLO6859]

You are definitely right. You have to try to learn.👍

[@jacobj5567]

Dude this video goes so hard!

[@tuned_tunas]

Thanks man glad to help !!

[@michelgarciag]

Hello, Do you see the fuel consumption on the car settings ? I can get to see hybrid battery flow, Thank you.

[@tuned_tunas]

You can change the upper dash board to display different settings as you wish. The headunit install does not affect these.

[@posecoach]

I have this same year with JBL. This is going to be sooooooo helpful!!

[@tuned_tunas]

Yessir let that system bump !!

[@posecoach]

@@tuned_tunas If I was to pay someone to install (in Austin) the head unit, apple adapter, and backup camera what do you think is a fair price???

[@tristannigos]

@@posecoach How much did you end up paying?

[@saizawmyohtet8]

bruh straight-up work on it until mid night. Great Video

[@tuned_tunas]

That’s what you got to do to make it happen. Thanks for the comment🙏🏽

[@808xcountry5]

Nice video bro, TY, will this work with the oem back up camera?

[@tuned_tunas]

Not sure if it will work for Prius with an existing back up camera. Maybe some more involved wiring but should be doable.

[@oneoffbear1812]

For years what I have done has velcroed using high temperature to velcro my tablet over the factory stereo (You can't get it on Amazon regular velcro will melt in the hot sun and not want to stick) so right now I have a 2012 Lexus RX with a 12-in screen that's a full tablet which means I can play KZbin, Netflix, Waze.... Any Android app and I can play videos while my car is moving... I had a 2012 Prius that I did the same thing on...

[@tuned_tunas]

But why keep the stock headunit ?? Makes no sense just replace it

[@MonarchsOfBrotherhood]

Genius 🤌

[@oneoffbear1812]

@@tuned_tunas wellllll. The stock head unit is basically perfectly paired to the car speakers so you can turn it up max volume and it should never blow the speakers where aftermarket unit might damage them eventually....

[@MrIrfannini]

hi buddy great video, can we install 10.1" media player in preuis 2013 Japenes ? i bought a car yesterday and found out existing xtrone MP touc does not work and all the controls on steering do not work either do you think replacing a headunit will resolve all these issues ? thanks for your help

[@tuned_tunas]

The way I installed this head unit made it so that the steering wheel controls don’t work. You need a separate harness adapter to make those work. You’re more than welcome to try that and see if that fixes your issues with the buttons.

[@wahidahmed5503]

Thank you man. Video was super helpful. Just installed mine. Non-JBL. Btw, do you know the exact adapter I will need for steering wheel control?

[@tuned_tunas]

I don’t know bro. Since the one I did was JBL the parts list is a little different. Shouldn’t be too hard to find.

[@marting5526]

Good video appreciate the content did your steering controls work with the new unit??

[@tuned_tunas]

No you need to buy a separate adapter for that. And for the JBL you need two more parts. Didn’t seem worth it to spend that much just to retain steering wheel controls

[@Skibblez]

@@tuned_tunas can you link these additional parts/adapters needed for this please?

[@niganools1501]

Bro this is beautiful.

[@tuned_tunas]

Thanks bro I appreciate it🙏🏽

[@Prisonmike89]

Sweet vid bro. Do you by chance know the RMS output to the speakers?

[@tuned_tunas]

I don’t know that that is.

[@vicco6589]

Nice vid bro, can you provide links to the parts used please?

[@tuned_tunas]

Just updated the description to include links to all parts used. Thanks for letting me know bro.

[@ahmedrahimi2004]

Hey 👋 did you use a dash kid because you didn't show in the video? I was confused

[@tuned_tunas]

No dash kit. This headunit just sits in there. All the parts I used are linked in the description

[@ahmedrahimi2004]

Oh ok Thanks appreciated

[@mr.akinester]

I need help for the rear camera, which cable do I need to connect?

[@rafidiraq9682]

Thanks for your video, is the steering wheel control working well after installation?

[@tuned_tunas]

No sir you have to buy a separate module to make them work and they don't have the best reviews so I did not bother.

[@skorpyo331]

Are the volume buttons buggy?

[@rojvan7164]

Hallo please can you tell me if all speakers working because I have also same android unit but front doors spekers dose not working

[@porporfamily]

Hello how to connect steering wheel to android head unit?

[@tuned_tunas]

Customer didn’t end up going that route. You would have to buy another module to give signal to the head unit. Just an additional cost

[@porkyong]

Nice work! Can you still able to use your Bluetooth handfree mic that comes with the car?

[@tuned_tunas]

Didn’t even know this car had a Bluetooth mic. We just use the one on the system. It has a better sound quality.

[@MrBlobfish2000]

Hi there, can you send me the link to buy this one? Or if not possible, how much did it cost?

[@tuned_tunas]

Don't have the link anymore but at the time it was the cheapest headunit you could find for this car on amazon.

[@MrBlobfish2000]

@tuned_tunas Oh, that's unfortunate. Well, thanks for the video.

[@tuned_tunas]

Glad to help 👍🏽

[@unoriginalnickname]

Thanks for the video - I already have one of these installed in my Prius. It's a bit old, though you can tell that it's identical to this one. The software is out of date and I'm seeking an update package - how I got here. You don't mention it in the video - where'd you get that link from?

[@tuned_tunas]

All the parts I used are linked in the description for your personal enjoyment. Thank you for watching.

[@cristianbam]

Hey man! Thanks a whole lot for the video! I have the same exact unit and managed to get it working. The only part that's not working, well, 2 actually: The seller sent me the wrong wiring harness and I lost steering wheel controls due to that. Also, I can't get aux to work. Might also be due to the canbus not being connected to the unit. The amp seems to work only with the radio, as when I play Spotify it sounds like ass (no bass at all, volume is much lower). Is there any way I can contact you for some info? Kinda afraid to start splicing wires on my own and I'd like to send you some pictures beforehand, if you have a minute.

[@tuned_tunas]

Unfortunate to hear about your car troubles. Mine didn’t have the steering wheel controls. You have to have a separate unto to allow them to work again.as for the aux it works fine I just don’t use it ever since its more convenient to use the Bluetooth. But you can always hit us up on ig if you got some more questions. Link is in all of our videos or just find us by name. @TunedTunas

[@MrIrfannini]

hi @cristianbam did yo manage to resolve your powersteeting controls issues ? i have exactly the same issue Plus my media toch do not work, do you think replacing the media headunit will resolve this issue also is there any thing i need to consider when buying adnriod head unit for my preuis or any Andriod MHU will work with my car ? thanks

[@frufrufrufru1999]

So it’s not plug and play? I have the JBL system, is that plug and play? Will I retain the same auto quality as the OEM prius system?

[@tuned_tunas]

None will be plug and play you have to make connections from the headunit to the harness adapter. Still sounds clean in my opinion

[@PremiumPham]

Are you still able to use the head unit to check the prius battery status etc afterwards?

[@tuned_tunas]

The battery life display is on the top cluster where mph is displayed. There was no display here previously. Just the stock head unit

[@garretstevengeronimo9432]

Can I have a recommendation I have a 2010 prius What brand that has everything Both Android and Iphone compatibility Bluetooth Usb port Stuff like that Can you recommend me a brands that may have what I said

[@tuned_tunas]

All brands that are a direct plug and play kit will be china brands. If you want a name brand head unit then you will definitely need to buy parts separately to make it compatible with your car. If you don’t want to buy things separately then be ready to spend more money on a kit that has everything I linked into one package. Best of luck

[@nklorichi]

good job

[@tuned_tunas]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@skorpyo331]

Didnt show anything about the brackets when installing the lcd. All good u just take it off stock radio and apply it to new unit.

Wish you show more step by step

[@2291225alan]

Hi the video very helpful. But after I install the aftermarket Android radio but I try to press the the steering wheel control on the right is not working

[@tuned_tunas]

You have to get steering wheel controls that we didn’t decide to pick up.

[@southbayengineered6905]

Did you Prius have the JBL package

[@tuned_tunas]

Yessir. I mention it in the video. That’s why you need the decoder for the amp to turn on

[@angelcruz6126]

Steering control working too?

[@tuned_tunas]

You can buy an adapter for it. But I’ve read they don’t work so well so I didn’t feel like wasting the $50 I rather just reach over

[@Radyradrad]

I don’t like it coming from a 2011 Toyota Prius owner myself, I like the look of the stereo system and the dash and everything already,!I feel like I’m on the Enterprise from Star Trek, what I would do however I’d get a carplay unit I can attach to the top of the dash between the center and passenger side but more towards passenger side, not a big screen either, something that fits good so it doesn’t over block the very top dash screen the hybrid screen, and also would change the colors of carplay to the same as colors of Prius dash, if possible of course, I do like the camera in the back but I don’t like all those connections but good for anyone who wants to get this done this way , it’s just not how I would do it.

[@tuned_tunas]

How would you install car play on the stock headunit ?? There’s no screen ??

[@tuned_tunas]

To some people this may seem like a lot of connections. But you do this enough times it’s all the same thing for every car. This is what the customer wanted and they are always right.

[@Radyradrad]

@@tuned_tunas most definitely if that’s what they want that’s what they get, I like the CarPlay’s you can attach to the front glass though, would be nice if Toyota had a screen already to sell rather than after market
