Carplay finally coming to the Entune System (???)

So I previously read that the 2019 Tacomas were going to have CarPlay...now that I have my 19 Tacoma I don't see it. This is crap.

 

My Kenwood Excelon has wireless Android Auto (DMX905S). But I think it only works with Pixel phones (I have a Pixel 2). Hooks up flawlessly.

 

No, the 2020 tacoma will have carplay.

 

And according to Toyota, there will be no updates for prior years to include CarPlay or android auto.

 

typically toyota!

 

Yup, got an email from Toyota confirming this.

 

Does anyone know if we can put this new Entune stereo in our 3rd gen tacomas that have the old stereo?

 

Hoping this comes true as I will fork out for a new OEM unit that supports CarPlay.

 

It has already been discussed tat it will fit but is going to be pricey like $2500+

 

Well, maybe not worth it at that price, good Lord.

 

$4200 for the head unit with navigation. Better off trading in on a 2020 lol.

 

I hope we can update. Fingers crossed, just got myself a 19’ tacoma and the only thing I’m not too happy about is that doesn’t have Apple car play. I know, first world problems, but that would be awesome if they do an update through software

Edit : Nevermind, just finished reading the whole thread lol

 

Man I hope this is a thing. The guy at the dealership said they may make it a dealership update for like 700 dollars. That was hard for me to believe tho

 

Interesting. I’m not willing to drop $2,500+ for Apple Car play though. Some other members were mentioning that. Pretty pricey.
