    I should be receiving at beta version of the Tacoma in the next couple weeks. Is there any interest in a group buy?

    I might consider it as a pre-HU upgrade if the price and capabilities look right.

    The price isnt cheap. Around 450 euros but you still have all of the function of your stock stereo with the ability to turn it into an in dash tablet at the press of a button. The install isnt hard if yoube ever put together a computer.

    Think of it as changing the input on your tv but having touch screen capabilities and the google play store

    Only downside is 450 Euros is a lot of coin. If it's not plug and play I'm not too sure

    Most high end head units run north of $700. This is $540. Ill put it through performance benchmarks and post for yall's interpretation.

    No
    It still is s viable choice.
    We will have to see. I actually don't have a real problem with my HU now.
    This could work. I'll beta test it for you on my 2018 SR5.

    Crap my buttons are on the bottom. Theyre making one for me but i can show you the install and functionality. We can probably get one build for your unit's spec

    I agree on that also. I was hoping it was half that price or less.
