This is a real world, everyman's review. KZread needs more of these. Certainly helped me make my decision about the T9.

Great wrap-up, definitely agree that this is really for people who don't mind troubleshooting and tinkering. It's not perfect but once you learn its quirks it works great

Good to know. I was looking at this just for the extra app availability but I think I’ll just hold off for now. Thank you.

Happy I could help! It has been great to have, but definitely not for everyone.

Thanks for this! I was looking to buy a 2013 4runner, now I'm sure this will work.

It’s definitely the best looking option out there. But after joining the group and seeing so many mixed reviews I’m out. It’s awesome everything it’s capable of but I’m not the type of person the needs all of that. I’m looking into the Sony bundles from Trail Grid Pro for an easy plug and play set up. We use the Garmin Overlander for all nav stuff. I’m glad you like it! It just seems like a lot to me. Keep up the great reviews!

Happy new year! Back to making videos...

hey so i recently bought this one everything seems to work but my only concern is the radio skips stations idk what to do to fix it please help.

Hi. After 2 years, how is the unit holding up? Any failures, bugs, etc? I'm looking to upgrade my 4runner. I'm looking at T9/10 vs Dasaita 11. I'm not a fan of the floating screen used by Pioneer, Sony, etc. These units, IMHO, look better than the options from other manufacturers.

I have this head unit. Do you know how to do the split screen?

Hello, I've got this unit install in my 18 4runner limited. It is beautiful, and everything was fine until one day....the sound just stopped. In my apps, radio, KZread, Google maps...everything is still working...theres just no sound!!! Can you help me out?? It's been installed for 2 months, this is the first issue I've had with it.

Did you get any insight on using an accessory switcher with the T9?

how do you connect wireless carplay to this screen? I currently have this screen in my 2016 4runner and want to use apple carplay very badly thanks!

How are you getting the google maps, spotify etc to run? Are you hot spotting your phone or do you have a separate 4g/5g provider?

Has a model that works with 2020 and newer models been released? The stock in my 2020 is awful.

Can it display transmission temp?

Will the T10 fit in a 2012 4Runner

Can’t you run the XM radio off your phone via CarPlay? Great video,! I’ve been looking at this unit for a while, and it’s half the price of the Alpine unit I found.

I don't have anything interesting lol. I usually get on a kick of listening to one band at a time, so it's all playlists of Def Leppard, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rise Against, etc. Other than that I use the Spotify curated playlists like the top 50. There is a pretty good Guardians of the Galaxy playlist that I like to listen to occasionally though!

Looks you have the model where the oem camera is on the rear view mirror. Did you try to splice the wire from that camera into the unit? That’s one of my concerns with this unit, I havent pulled the trigger on it yet.

I didn’t, because my rear camera was already broken! There’s not a lot of space to work with when trying to splice into the stock camera.

@@RevereOverland supposedly the wire for the camera travels from the rear view mirror down to the driver side A pillar. Thanks for the thorough review of the unit, nice to hear the good and bad will take this into consideration might wait for the t10!

Great video! I just installed a T9 in my 2017 Tacoma TRD Pro 6 speed MT. Can you see what your T9 "vehicle configuration" model / year is set to and send a pic please? I am having issues with people hearing me during phone calls. Already verified the microphone is operational. I also can't get the steering wheel controls to configure and work. See pic for reference. Thank you in advance.
