Just went there for the first time a few months ago. It was as expected. Great for kids. Lived in FL all my life and have driven by it many times but never went in. Took my wifes mother to get us there since she lives down the rd from it.

You don't have to remove the handle off of the shift lever to move the trim around it. Simply remove the fastener at the base, shift into drive or manual mode, lift the base of the trim plate, then move it back to release the front, then turn it left 45 degrees or so, and lift off. Shift back into park.

[@MrBEli-dw4rl]

I truly appreciate your video. Helped me alot with installation. I haven't seen so many wires in my life, 😂. Installed and i love my unit. I got an after market back camera to install. Hope you make a video on your installation as well please and update us. Thank you again.

[@IS300driver26]

Bought this radio based on this video, and I was pretty disappointed with it. It's very slow and sucks at connecting to anything, and can't hold a connection. It looks great but is not very good

[@tripleBacres]

Thanks for your comment. I'm looking at upgrading my stereo and almost purchased this unit, because of this video. But I decided to watch a few more video reviews. This one guy was saying you should be looking at a unit that has at least 3GB of ram. Or it will be slow and possibly freeze. Thanks so much for your comment. You just confirmed the other review I watched. I'm sorry you found out the hard way. Hope you can return the unit.

[@IS300driver26]

@@tripleBacres yeah no problem, I knew this was to good to be true but I tried it anyway. I wanted this to work so bad but it is what it is. One thing I forgot to add to this was the fact the radio was still stuck in the China time zone and could not be changed and it was super frustrating.

[@rubenkjbr]

Absolutely the best radio installed for a tundra and the whole KZbin thanks for the video I will buy that same unit in Amazon the best Head unit installation it's yours.👍🇵🇪

Why do you hold your key when starting your truck? great video

Thanks for the video. Helped a bunch. The 1st unit they sent didn't work and they replaced it. 2nd unit works great so far....have you had any issues? thx again

[@Im__________me]

Hey man, I just got a tundra and ive been looking at these style because of the oem style fitment. Do they have normal subwoofer preamp outputs? Ive seen a few the have a single green plug which is new to me. Normally its just the red and white or left and right audio cables?

[@trex246]

Where did the mike go? and where did the USB cables come from? I can not get the top to snap in, its loose.

[@rickwheeler6811]

The extra connectors, RCA, USB and Mic... Where do they run too?

[@melham7958]

Thank you for the video. I do have a question I can seem to get answered. I have a 2011 Tubdra and the oem backup camera display is in my review mirror. Installing this radio how would it affect the factory backup camera? Thanks

[@Paulinaandjosh]

The back up camera video will show up on the screen of the head unit. If you want it to show up on both you can try using a RCA cable splitter. Split the video coming from the camera to go to the head unit and the mirror. Without seeing how it’s wired I can’t say for sure if that will work though.

[@melham7958]

@@Paulinaandjosh perfect! Thank you! That cleared up my worries. This is my first time installing a radio so I was a bit worried about messing up my OEM camera. Thanks again

[@justinknudsen2599]

I have a 2011 with a backup camera in the review mirror. Will this support it and switch the camera to the screen? Or would I have to buy an aftermarket backup camera?

[@Paulinaandjosh]

You won’t need to buy an aftermarket backup camera. Right now the camera is wired to the mirror. For the camera to show up on the stereo you will need to wire it to the pink wire labeled back up on the stereo. You could try to wire both the mirror and the stereo but I’m not positive that will work.

[@justinknudsen2599]

Sweet thanks!

[@jfcastillo1975]

i have a question, did you have to config the model of the car in settings, for detecting steering wheel control?, y bought one stereo, i conect the cable of the steering wheel control, but it dont detect it. i select the model of the car in settings but trundra don't appears en the menu,

[@Paulinaandjosh]

I did not have to select the model of the truck. I would contact the manufacturer to see if that unit has different instructions to configure the steering wheel controls.

[@alfredotrejo6593]

Muchísimas gracias por este video usted es una persona que si sabe lo que estás haciendo eres muy inteligente con los equipos de audio de toyota tundra y se le aprecia su tiempo para enseñar como se conecta todos esto cables del equipo nuevo gracias si puedes hagas un video de toyota tundra 2020 TRDSport

Thank you Alfredo, that is very kind! Unfortunately I do not have a 2020 Tundra to do a install but I wish I did!

[@francismcbride464]

How is the headunit holding up? Waiting to do one in my 2012 tundra.

[@Paulinaandjosh]

It can have it's occasional glitches here and there but It's minor stuff. I mainly installed it because I needed a screen for the backup camera and it works with the camera perfectly! Overall I'm happy with it. (Video for the backup camera on my channel)

[@jimquantic]

how about a back-up camera-possible and a wired, not wireless system?

[@bzcrew0511]

Hey bro sick video are you still liking this head unit now that you’ve had it for a while

[@Paulinaandjosh]

Thank you! I’m pretty happy with it. The only criticism I would give is that the audio quality could be better. I mainly listen to podcasts so it’s not a deal breaker for me.

[@bzcrew0511]

@@Paulinaandjosh i’ve had it for two weeks now and I’m having some connectivity issues with it. iPhone will always connect but halfway down the highway It’ll stop connecting I’m having to press reset a lot I noticed mine is a little different and instead of the zlink it says Z link5. I’m 50/50 so far

[@GulfcoastSnipe]

Some others say that this not mounting to the 4 bolt connections cause it to feel less sturdy. With that being said, what’s your opinion?

[@Paulinaandjosh]

That is correct, the 4 original mounting bolts are not used. I was able to get the top two connectors to “click” in but it took some finagling to get it in just right. So far it hasn’t popped out and feels fairly secure but I do wish that it used at least two of the original mounting bolts for peace of mind.

[@GulfcoastSnipe]

@@Paulinaandjosh Sounds good enough. I wonder with some light fabricating if you could cut/rig the two metal plates that come with the radio to be used with at least two bolts to the original mounting points if you removed the climate control cluster for in place alignment..

[@LuigGz]

Hey bud any info on the back cam u used and installed ? Any suggestions.

😊 hello sir. Maybe you can help. I have the exact stereo, the touch screen buttons along side the screen aren't responding to my touch. Everything else is working fine, i don't know what i did but they worked before. Thank you

[@Paulinaandjosh]

Sounds like you may have gotten a bad unit. I would exchange it for a new one.

[@jakeestrada1239]

Did you have to re tighten the 4 nuts you pulled from OEM radio ?

[@Paulinaandjosh]

The new stereo just clips in. The 4 nuts are not needed.

[@adambenigno5798]

Good vid. You didn’t play any music. That’s what’s important. Is it going to be better than my JBL?

[@Paulinaandjosh]

Thank you! Can’t play music due to copyright but the sound quality is just ok. I got better sound for the stock stereo.

[@masonmurphy1676]

Hey josh i just bought one of these cheaper amazon android units... 10.1" roinvou is the brand.. $200 so didnt spend a ton on it. While attmepting to connect to zlink it keeps asking my phone to download a supposed zlink app and of course chrome warns me that the link is suspicious. I thought zlink was built into the android auto app? Just wondering if you had any of those problems...

[@Paulinaandjosh]

On the unit I purchased Zlink was already on the stereo. I did not have to download anything on my phone only connect to Bluetooth.

[@Kevin-6119]

Hi what exactly is the CarPlay for? I’m considering getting the one you have but there’s a option to get the car play one and one without CarPlay.

[@Paulinaandjosh]

CarPlay mirrors the apps from your phone like Google Maps, text messages, phone etc. If having apps like this on the stereo is important to you than you will want the option with CarPlay.

[@Hoonigan_Honda94]

Did you end up using a canbus? I have a similar radio but my steering wheel controls do not work:/

[@Paulinaandjosh]

It isn’t required for this stereo. Did you try programming the controls like I did in the video?

[@Hoonigan_Honda94]

@@Paulinaandjosh yeah but it wasn’t working for whatever reason

[@sshoemaker28]

I installed this head unit in my 2011 Tundra. I'm having trouble with the Zlinks app "skipping" like an old CD when I play music. Have you experienced this at all?

[@Paulinaandjosh]

I have this problem when my wife and I are both in the truck. Since both of our phones are connected to the head unit Z link doesn't know which phone to connect to. If that's not your case I would get a replacement. Don't forget to Subscribe if you haven't already. I'm trying to get to 1,000 Subscribers.

Hello, congratulations on your video, a small question: do you use the microphone already in the vehicle or do you use the microphone provided with the unit? Thanks

[@Paulinaandjosh]

Hi! Thank you for watching! It comes with a microphone. I installed it underneath the steering wheel. It’s not noticeable and works well.

I got the same one after watching your video and i loved everything abt it. But 3 months later like 2 days ago, it just stop working. My Bluetooth on my radio will not connect. It keeps saying i got to power it on and evertime i do under setting, it keeps turning back off. My android play will not connect as well. A almost $500 investment down the drain. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot shot this? Any help will do. Thanks
