how legit is this head unit???

I was looking for a head unit for my 17 trd sport but then saw this thing

https://phoenixautomotiveinc.com/pr...oyota-tacoma-2016-2022?variant=40401251827898

[ PRE-ORDER ] 12.1” ANDROID 10 FAST BOOT VERTICAL SCREEN NAVIGATION RADIO FOR TOYOTA TACOMA 2016 - 2022

It looks really cool but then I have never seen this style of head unit on a tacoma before ever and I really don't know this website so I was wondering if anyone ever see this being installed in real life or something same?

 

We're hoping you'll be our Guiney Pig!

Where did the heat control buttons go?

 

Maybe it's cool? Maybe it's vaporware?

Their site doesn't even show mockups of the UI though, so there's no way I'd pre-order.

Installation for Tundra similar to the photo being marketed. Looks interesting...

 

Where is the 2H/4H/4L button go?

 

This would hypothetically be pretty cool for all the guys that run phones/tablets to monitor different engine metrics. It would also be nice for the overlanding/hunting apps that are a lot better for off-road use than a typical map app is. Our windshield is small enough as it is!

 

Interesting but probably a hacked crapdroid interface.

 

I did a reverse lookup on their domain and found this:

https://www.whois.com/whois/phoenixautomotive.com






They may be legit, but they don't look like a company that can produce electronics. Then again, this could be their offices, and their manufacturing could be done else where. Like China.

 

I like this one, 10" bolts up to existing dash trim.

 

Buy it and post your results!

 

I love the bad photoshop pictures of their product. Makes me want to pony up the cash.

 

They are a legitimate company. I had one of their headunits for another vehicle. They're no different from the 50 or so other vendors of these overseas Android-based head units. They can be buggy, non-operational, and frustrating. If you're patient they do have some positives. If you're not......

 

That doesn't mean anything, its just a domain registrar. Lookup tacomaworld.com

The real curious thing here is this:

Looks like a shill address for fake businesses.

 

Lots of businesses incorporate in craphole Wyoming because of their no state income tax. There are specific business that cater to companies to do exactly that providing a real physical mailing address to comply with incorporation.

I want!!!

 

This guy wants to shoot punch a hole through this thing. (installed one in a F150)

 

Can anyone just put an instructional video on Youtube without an opening theme song? Just put the info in the video and dispense with the music and background video.

The only guy I know who installed an Android head unit and got it to work is a very good IT guy.

In addition to everything else I see wrong with these units build quality seems iffy. I'd want to know what the return and warranty policies are before I would spend that kind of money.

 

Here we go again

 

Anyone pull the trigger on it?

 

doesn't look like it would fit on my truck. or does it relocate the hvac knobs?
