    Looking to get rid of the original dash cause its beater and tired of the fm transmitter. Looking for carplay functional screen with bluetooth audio. Anything cost efficient and does anyone have any links for where to look? Amazon etc

    - ICON UCAs, BP51/Kings, SCS wheels, 285s, Leer 100XR canopy. Greenlane aluminum winch bumper, Smittybilt X20 winch. Trying Falken AT3w now, Really like BF KO2s.
    It’s older and discontinued but I really like the Pioneer DMH 1500 nex that I installed 5 years ago, been reliable, has apple CarPlay, I run different map apps on it, wasn’t expensive. I vote pioneer, alpine, kenwood are also good.

    Make sure if you have steering wheel controls you will also need a maestro device
    That lets you use the factory volume/ mode on steering wheel
    And of course plug adapters so no cutting of factory wires

    https://www.crutchfield.com/S-uSi9D...toyota-tacoma-double-cab.html?omnews=18136216 is a good place to start. Then shop by year, make, model, and trim level of vehicle, and use the selectors to find the equipment with the features you'd like. Gear advisors are available by phone, too.
    I was really happy with their harness wiring service, since they included all the Toyota OEM connectors to connect the new harness(es) with the existing wiring. Less grief for me!
