    I wonder how she figured this out so fast and has the new harness “on the way” already?

    Wait, don’t tell me. She knew about the issue but shipped the defective product, anyway, without a word, hoping you wouldn’t notice. Or what?

    It’s a remarkably consistent experience thus far, it seems. Wow, 2019!

    Is there a decent *independent* third-party review of a working KTJO Tacoma HUD system? I am curious about the viewing angle. We have an OEM HUD on my Prius Prime, and the way I have the seat positioned makes it almost unseeable.

    I am going to sell mine when I receive it. I don't want to risk her garbage products somehow damaging my trucks electronics. @VicNic3 I'm 6th on there and don't have mine either. She probably just did an alphabetical list or something. She obviously doesn't think too hard about any of this.

    The install was much easier and faster without any hardware needing to be replaced or upgraded. I did break the tabs/clips on the OEM cover while trying to remove it without removing the A pillar. Just a heads up for you to know if you're planning on going the same install route.

    The instructions are on her website on the HUD page. It's alittle tricky to locate but it is there.

    One would think that after the grab handle fiasco (complete with early investor angst about her delivery priorities) she might have learned a thing or two. Nope. Gonna treat those who forked over their dough early on like shit. Deja f#%^in’ vu.

    Sad to see that I'm not the only one.

    Installed my HUD however it goes dark after 10 seconds. during those ten seconds I can put it into the settings mode and it will stay lit and function normally :annoyed:

    Tried Insta, email and now facebook to reach out without any response (figures)

    paid with CC so I could always charge back but waiting to see if a solution could be found.

    *EDIT* mine is also tuned.

    I have one coming today that I'll likely try in the OBD port prior to installation. Mine's a "tuned" 2019. :fingerscrossed: I've reached out too... :help:

    If it doesn't work in your truck maybe you could try it in someone's 2016 or 2017... just to try to confirm the "different harness required" issue affecting newer trucks.

    The people I did know with 2016/17 traded theirs in for bigger trucks this past year.


    I can try to ask random people in the parking lot but assume it would go something like this.
