    So I found a really good deal 30bucks on a 2014 touch screen head unit and wanted to install it in my Tacoma. My question is to whoever has done it. If it’s going to be an easy disconnect and just reconnect everything to this new unit or do I have have to buy connectors and stuff? I currently have a 2012 non touchscreen radio in my Tacoma. It has XM and steering wheel controls.

    I have this same head unit in my 14 and the thing keeps rebooting or freezes up; just beware.
