    This is good news! It likely means that there is a constant hot, a switched hot and a ground, exactly what we need to add the Limited mirror. We still won't have the temp but the Limited mirror should be plug and play.

    Sorry if this was posted! Quick Reference! If you have Entune Premium then you should have auto dimming rear view mirror. TRD sport had a couple of different Extra Value Packages with options and yes all Limited should have it.

    Hey Jay,
    I have the TRD sport with premium JBL entune. No auto dimming mirror though. Still looking to see if anyone has put in one from a tundra or limited and were able to get the temp/compass working.

    baurat88 2014? I have the info from build a custom Toyota Tacoma. I printed the paper work on 9/22/13 and I believe that was the first week that I could build a Tacoma. It was listed under TRD Sport Extra Value Package with options $6,035

    Do you actually have the truck yet though? Although it's listed in paperwork as an option they aren't actually showing up from the factory that way.

    Hey Jay,
    I do have that package $6035. The only package its standard on is the LT limited double cab $7660. i'll snap a picture and post it. I think some other people have the same issue as well. Kinda of disappointing. No where on my window sticker does the PY Sport pacakge mention auto dimming mirror. That was only on the 2013 and earlier models i guess?

    Also just confirmed with the dealer. no more auto dimming on the 4wd trd sports. Only on the Limited package and can also get it on the 2wd option.
    Makes no sense, but its just a cost cutting measure. go figure.

    BTW..where exactly is the temp sensor located in the grille? Anyone have a pic?

    I just received my 2014 that I ordered. The mirror option changes if you order the Nav. My truck has a simple mirror now with no features.

    I do not understand the need for an auto dimming mirror? With privacy glass in the rear a dimming mirror has no real value IMHO. My 2003 did not have it either.

    I don't have a picture but, if what I have read is correct, it is on the center vertical support almost directly in the center. I looked on my truck and it is there. If that is indeed the temp sensor, I have one...

    Has anyone found an option for Homelink plus the backup camera screen in a mirror? If so, can you post a link? I don't need the compass and temp gauge, as that's already in the overhead console. I basically just want to add oem looking Homelink to my truck. Thanks.

    Here's one but looks like if you want homelink & camera display you'll have to take some extras like compass with it. Haven't seen one that is just homelink/camera and nothing else.............pricey too, but less than dealer

    According to the 2014 Tacoma catalog - the auto-dimming mirror with home link is not available on any model except the Prerunner/4x4 (as part of a select package)

    I just picked up my 2014 TRD off road 4x4 and he does not have it! They moved it to the limited package only (and you can not get TRD off road and limited together...

    I am going to check today to see if it can be added!

    Jafo,
    So if you have nav, how does the mirror option change? I am waiting for my sr5 4x4 with nav to arrive. I don't care about the dim function, but definitely want home link and temp. If my truck does not have temp/homelink, I wonder if it will have the temp sensor already installed. Anyone know?
    Thanks
    Bill

    I have been spoiled with Homelink. If I gave to buy a limited to get it on my nxxg truck it will be bye bye Tacoma.

    From my understanding the reason the mirror changes is because the Nav now has the backup camera instead of the mirror.

    The temperature module is present in the grill however it does not appear to be wired to the overhead console anymore. The assumption is it is used simply for the A/C. Right now it sounds like the best you can do would be a Gentex mirror w/ auto dimming, compass and homelink but we need a part number and a Guinea pig. The Entune stereos do pull weather data but only when in HD radio coverage and it doesn't appear to be from the sensor.
