I am the android Headunit King and I approve of this video.

Good video, answers several questions about removal/installation of units. My main questions concern operating the unit.

Just got this radio, this vid was a big hepl! appreciate it!

Great walk through. Thank you!

Nicely done video. 😊

I installed the same head unit to my 2016 4runner and after installing I don't have my compass on the small screen in between my gauges. I wanted to know if that's normal and you if you experienced that too. Thanks

I couldn't find in my box the small black cable that allows you to use the factory usb.

Great video, very detailed. Really, an outstanding job. Would you happen to know if this unit will work with a 2023 4Runner utilizing Multi-Terrain Monitoring (4 cameras total)? I looked at their website and the units are dated only up to 2019.

Great video .... question.... Are you able to adjust your phone ringtone volume? Mine doesn't do it. I got the same unit on my 2010 4R. When my phone rings the ringtone blasts at highest volume. Also, mine doesn't have a split screen option at all. On top of that any USB or SD card I connect to it gets corrupted. Other than that, the unit is cool.

Is any way to do factory reset on this radio when the logo is stock

I just installed this same head unit in my 2018 4Runner. I like everything except it doesn’t remember your saved radio presets.

Oh awesome! Bummer on the radio presets. I honestly have never listened to the radio with this unit. Does everything else work and come back on when you start the truck? Sometimes if the red and yellow wires are switched, nothing will save. Just a thought. Thanks for watching and happy holidays!

Does the factory microphone plug into the unit for use? I see in a few videos, there are comments on the "stuffiness" of the new unit provided microphone and some people disconnect the new microphone. My 22 Limited has a Toyota mic in the overhead and seems to work fine.

Unfortunately the factory microphone only works with the factory unit. This unit has a built in microphone and it comes with an external. I think the built in mic works great but some people have stated it’s muffled in the comments. I just didn’t have issues with mine.

From where/what website did you order your unit? Did you specify anything in particular (nav/sat radio etc...) or were there options you could select???

The only thing they need to know is what you have in there currently and they’ll match what you need. Hope this helps!

I can’t seem to connect the Dasaita 10.25” on to my 2017 4runner limited , some of the harness connections don’t seem to match Can u please help recommend a professional to knock this off , near Dallas Fort-worth area tx

You may have to reach out to Dasaita because there are other harnesses for different models. You may be missing a harness. I had the same issue at first, didn’t know I needed another harness. Unfortunately there are too many shops to recommend one for your area. I do know Best Buy does installs if you haven’t done it yet. Sorry for the lateness. Heard mixed reviews on quality of installs. Hope this helps. Happy holidays!

I do know you need a thumb drive with the update on it, then run the update through the radio and choose said thumb drive. I’ve been surprised by the customer service with Dasaita and they always respond within a good timeframe, here’s there email: office@dasaita.com Hope this helps alittle.

I did do a review video, (2 Month Review | Dasaita 4runner Headunit Problem? kzread.info/dash/bejne/mH5txpafddOsaaQ.html) and they actually reached out to me after posting it. They did state to me in an email that they fixed the issues and removed the defective units. Your guess is as good as mine if that’s true, but I really enjoyed the radio until it stopped working… obviously!

I do know people that prefer factory and want nothing else, so if you like the factory go with the factory nav. It’s all personal preference really. They both play sound. Haha.

You may have purchased the wrong harness. Dasaita has a lot of different harnesses for different models, especially with factory upgraded systems. Contact Dasaita and explain, they’ll help you out. Most of the time they’ll send the new harness and ask for the other one back, but I can’t speak for them. Sorry that happened to you.
