2021 tacoma trd sport oem radio upgrade

Hi everyone, I just got a 2021 trd sport and the OEM radio is doesn't have HD radio , but it has Carplay and Android Auto and XM . but I'm not happy that it doesn't have HD radio, Does any one know if you can just swap out the radio for an OEM one with HD ? is it programed to the vin or can it be just a straight swap , I really dont want to swap it out for an aftermarket radio.

Thanks
Pino

 

Prepare to spend big bucks.

 

I feel like toyota went cheap on this. When I had my 16 Sport all the TRD models came with the navigation HD radio and it was great. Now this radio doesnt have navigation or HD radio and I find Andriod auto to be complete garbage.

 

There are some things that are tied to the VIN. Like the cellular remote options. Everything else on the radio will work normally.

 

I completely agree I had a 18 sport with the same nav HD entune and I really liked it this radio in the 21 is complete junk

 

That is what I though, I figure Ill keep an eye out , it is a lease so I wont go crazy. Thank you

 

Can the Toyota part 86140-04200 w/HD Radio be retrofit into the 2021 TRD Sport?

 

I haven't used the radio in my truck yet... I've had it for almost 2 years too. I sometimes connect my phone to the infotainment system using bluetooth

 

Wait, they took out HD radio? Wtf, why would they take out HD radio? I loved HD radio when I used the factory radio in my truck (though I hated when it would switch back and forth between HD and SD) But when you had a good signal it was great.

 

I’ll trade you the Premium Headunit with HD Radio from my 2016 TRD straight up.
