    Hi new to Tacoma world. I’m Algol go to be buying a Tacoma soon and I want to get the best head unit for the price you know. Main things I want are:
    • Apple CarPlay (wireless if possible)
    • Use of OEM steering wheel controls
    • Built in Nav
    • Use of OEM microphone
    • At least 2 inputs for camera’s.
    TIA. All the advice on what year Tacoma I should go with would be great too. Thanks so much.

    Welcome! I have the Kenwood DMX1037s in my 2019. It works flawlessly. Wireless Apple CarPlay connects super fast and works from a distance away from vehicle.
