    I have a 2017 Tacoma SR. How can I install car play? I have a radio with CD player.

    There are 3 options for getting CarPlay:

    1. If you have Entune 2.0, add an adapter that feeds into the Aux input on your existing head unit. For example CarABC or BeatSonic
    2. Swap in an Entune 3.0 head unit from another Toyota, w/an adapter harness
    3. Replace the Toyota hardware with a 3rd party head unit.

    Option 1 is cheapest but options 2 or 3 are going to give a better CarPlay experience.

    Many similar requests in the audio video section:
