The module is great, no words to describe how much better it makes the car feel but be aware. You should know what you're getting yourself into if you decide to diy it like i did. The manual is a bit vague and the cords and wiring can get confusing. Also be ready to drill holes and route wires through different passages and outlets. This will not be a quick install, and make sure to be careful. DO NOT START THE CAR WHILE STUFF IS NOT PLUGGED IN, you will blow your fuses and make the mistake i did. The screen and module make the car feel so fresh and open and give the age of the car new life in interior quality. Its well worth your time if you just give it some patience.
Took a long time to arrive. Directions in the package are weak. Customer support was prompt. Although there is a time delay related to the time differences from the east coast to the west coast slash china.
Bottom line is that it works and I am satisfied and it is a whole lot cheaper than spending over a thousand dollars to buy a new radio.

This product is simple to install and works just as good as a factory CarPlay. Wish I put this in years ago! I highly recommend.
My Tundra is nine years old, so getting CarPlay to work with the OEM system is quite remarkable. This unit is not perfect, but it does the trick and I would gladly purchase another one if I needed it.
The big thing is that you have to keep expectations reasonable. My primary motivation was to bypass the very limited AI capabilities of my truck’s voice command system and to gain access to updated map guidance systems. This unit does both of those quite capably.
If you have a premium JBL system, in the settings you can direct all audio through the OEM sound, so you don’t have to lose audio quality.
It did take quite a while for the truck to pair with this unit, but after numerous tries it finally did. I recently did lose connectivity briefly, but it paired back up again on its own.
I cannot really tell if the direct usb connection is doing anything. I had initially hoped to avoid bluetooth and just go with the direct usb connection, but nothing seemed to happen until I did the usb pairing.
Bottom line, I’d be more on the fence if this cost several hundred dollars more, but at the sub $200 price point I’m satisfied.
Great service, fast delivery. Thanks CarlinkLife!

Läuft einwandfrei, der Einbau wäre mit einer deutschen Bedienungsanleitung wesentlich einfacher. Eine echte Beschreibung fehlt leider...
Works exactly as advertised, very easy to install fast delivery
The module is designed to fit perfectly in its location. Installation was straightforward, with no modifications were required. Smooth switching between the factory interface and CarPlay. There was no need for an additional microphone as it utilizes the car’s built-in system
No issues! Everything works perfectly like OEM and it’s super easy to install. I would 100% recommend it.
It does everything as advertise, it looks great in person, everyone that sees it loves it, build quality is very very close to OEM. This is exactly what I have always wanted!
I had some issues initially when installing components but customer service was very prompt very responsive even though we were on different time zones I would highly recommend to anyone who want to add CarPlay to vehicles not equipped with it and moderately priced
Recommend buying this upgrade over stock screen when adding carplay and android auto. Display is more crisp no lag you be able to swipe smoothly like a phone screen unlike oem screen that is touch only. That's why I'm happy with this purchase upgrade paired with my android auto module. Great combo makes my 16 QX50 infotainment more modern and it's easy to install save me money from having someone intall it for me. I'm glad they had this amazing product available for my car. Thank you
Work pretty good on my 16 QX50 . Great product. Seems reliable but goood with one year warranty. Price is on point compared to others. Infotainment feel new and refreshing. Customer service are excellent. Happy with my purchase. Thank you
