    As far as I know, this won’t work due to entune 2.0 and entune 3.0 differences.

    Remember when Apple dropped their headphone jack and someone said you could drill out the case for it and people did?

    Yeah, smells a lot like that

    19 camrys have the update for CarPlay. But they’re entune 3.0. As far as I know no update exists for tacos. You can put a entune 3.0 headunit in yours though... but $$$

    Ive been told only one jbl setup has the chipset installed capable of flash and it was produced after the 6 month of 2019, so rare but possible

    If it looks like Facebook, and smells like Facebook, it's probably BS.

    No mention of Tacoma updates. BUT I did find info about 18 siennas and camrys that can get the phase 2 and 3 update. Maybe they used one of those

    but those are entune 3.0 units

    Looks like its a mirroring device. He said it required another harness and that it needed to be plugged in to work. Soooo gave hope to 1000s but at the end of the day, not just a simple flash. Brightside is, with a mirroring device you cam get carplay in the older headunits

    You can buy mirroring (still got to use the phone) or a device that gives you full touch screen capabilities but cost as much as a aftermarket HU.
