    Sorry guys. I know you get a lot of these questions. But with so many variables, it's hard to weed through what's needed, and I hate not being prepared.

    I have a 2012 double cab. I have the JBL double din system, with steering wheel controls and backup camera.

    I'm one click away from ordering a Sony XAV-AX100, and want to make sure I have everything I need, and nothing I don't.
    https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...ords=PAC+RP4.2-TY11&rh=i:aps,k:PAC+RP4.2-TY11

    Questions that I have:

    - Do I need a dash kit like the Sosche since I already have a double din?

    - Steering Wheel Control Interface - I've read on some places that I don't need the interface for this unit, but I've read in other places that I do. Anyone know for sure? Something about being able to map the buttons through the unit itself

    - Antenna adapter - need one of these, right?

    - Do I need a parking break bypass thing? I wouldn't think I would, since I already have that

    - Will the unit work with my existing microphone, or am I going to have to use the included mic?



    Again, sorry for the trouble. I've been researching for 2 days and still don't have all the answers yet.



    Edit - I'm not 100% sold on the Sony, so I'm open to suggestions. Main goals I want from a unit - Android, tuner, blutooth

    Update: So, I actually went with the ATOTO A6 Pro A6Y2721PR. I didn't know anything about this brand, but after a lot of research, it's got great reviews, and it does more of what I want it to do.

    I ordered the PAC RP4.2-TY11 Radiopro4 Ty11, the antennae adapter, and the Metra dash kit. I think that's all I need.

    Hopefully I'll have it installed next week, and will give an update on how it went and my thoughts on the unit.
