This upgrade kit adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to the factory head unit in 2014-2019 Toyota Tacoma trucks. Both wired and wireless connections are supported. The CarPlay and Android Auto interfaces appear as a menu inside the original screen, so the dash looks stock.
The module installs into the back of the factory head unit and connects to the radio with a ribbon cable. It does not plug into the wiring harness. The kit keeps the entire factory menu and all factory functions, and it plays music through the stock head unit at the same audio quality. Factory XM radio can be preserved. The module uses the factory microphone, so no aftermarket mic is needed.
To switch between the factory interface and the Hamilton interface, hold the speech button on the steering wheel for 3 seconds at any time.
