    I'm looking to replace the radio and cd player in my 2007 tacoma with some type of screen. I just need somthing simple to mirror my phone to by usb so I can get navigation. I'm also thinking about getting a digital media receiver unit so I can connect to bluetooth. Any recommendations are appreciated!

    Welcome.

    When in doubt, I get on crutchfield, see what fits, and read their articles on that. That hasn't steered me wrong yet.

    ^^^Agree.

    One thing to look for, if you have an iPhone, mirroring is tricky. Look for CarPlay or Android Auto. They will give you nav from your phone. Most headunits nowadays have USB as part of their function, so that should be fairly straightforward.

    Last recommendation, stick with the big boys, KENWOOD, Pioneer, or Alpine. Brands like BOSS are not worth the headaches.

    Thanks for the recommendations! I ended up going on crutchfield and getting the Kenwood DMX4707S

    KENWOOD makes solid gear. I’ve had my DMX906s for 3 years, and going strong.
