What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

How does the phone connect to android auto or apple carplay with the wireless charger? I thought phone had to be connected manually to usb data port?

 

Through my Dasaita Android 13 head unit via Bluetooth and charging at the same time

 

Nice, that's exactly where I like to keep my phone

 

I bought this one off eBay for about $65 and 30min install

 

Cruiser Head 4x4 has them, and you can order double switches as well as do custom graphics/words. Their "blue" is a more deep blue color.
Small Push Series for Toyota – CH4X4 Industries

Air On Board has them as well. You can't do custom or double switches, but their "Light Blue" is a really close match to the Tundra factory interior blue
AIR ON BOARD (AOB) - Toyota Push Switches - Switches - Products

 

There are many brands - this is just one example.

$63 CarlinKit 5.0 Wireless CarPlay/Android Auto Adapter USB for Factory Wired CarPlay Cars (Model Year: 2015 to 2024), Wireless CarPlay/Android Auto Dongle Convert Wired to Wireless,Fit In-Dash Navigation

Plug it into the wired CarPlay/AA port, connect your phone to this device, and put your phone wherever you damn well please.

 

I've had good luck w/these... *** confirm fitment and such as I just pulled the link to get you to the company real quick. I've ordered stuff from them for my Tundra and 4Runner, so not sure which one it pulled up ****

Any issues with highway drone?

There is one FS relatively close to me. I want the grunt and growl around town, but we take a lot of family trips 2+ hours across the state and I don't want any drone for those drives.

 

I actually like the colors. Of course I came from .Laramie Limited Longhorn. I hate the "leather" so we will see.

I hate the semi useless cooled seat which will be the reason I tear into this one day. When I do, it will most likely be to replace the upholstery too. I'll attempt to keep the color, but that mixed bag of garbage they call "upgraded leather" is about worthless.

 

I have heard no drone with mine on the highway. That was my biggest reason for going with the TRD, no drone.

 

So I have a 2014 1794 with steering wheel Silver volume button, is there a way to buy a black volume control? I know you can't replace the button was thinking another year, model that came in black. I thought I read that the Taco had the same controls.

 

AJT sells the radio knob controls in black. They are more like overlay s so you just fit them right over your stock knobs

Sorry should have been more specific steering wheel volume button.

 

I love the Rago/RAM mount. How do you like it? CO just passed a hands free law and that's the setup I've been planning.

 

So been going crazy on junk yard sites looking for different models car toyota cars with a black steering wheel volume control. Can anyone confirm that a 2016 4runner steering wheel controls are the same as a 2014 tundra?

Picture attached is of a 2016 4runner

 

My volume button only has 2 graphics on it, that 4Runner button has 3 graphics and looks like I may be longer. All from memory but I do not remember that on my Tundra

 

I believe the button does have 3 graphics. It's just in the black it stand out more. Just searched a tundra wheel and has 3 also.

 

Got some 4 new Cooper STT PRO tires yesterday at my favorite local tire shop for $1900 out the door. Would have been $2600 at Discount Tire.

 

If the button layout on both sides is a match, then you should be GTG to swap with a 4R or Taco steering wheel controls. Pinouts and connectors will be the same for the versions with the same buttons

 

I guess I'll take a risk, I'll keep you guys posted

 

You can also just disassemble the wheel and swap the button/controls “assembly” without having to pull the whole wheel.

 

Yes that is exactly planning to do. Just wanted to see if anyone tried it before.

 

I love it. Makes really good of that dash area. It's one of the best phone mount system IMO. I only have the 1 mount so far but I'll eventually add another for my passenger.

 

Yea I've had RAM mounts on my motorcycles for years, so it was a no brainer to lean that direction now that I have to have one on the truck.

BTW, I just saw your other truck in your signature. I've also got a '98 3.4 T100, been supercharged since 2013 if I remember right. It's in the process of a SAS right now.

 

Hmm, not on mine and it is from a 2018 Platinum

 

Yea because your is not the volume control button, your is the answering and hang up button.

 

Different button/function
14-17=VOLUME
18-21=PHONE

 

Well damn, I was looking at the location of the button. My bad and I will go get my second cup of Joe now. Thanks for the clarification, I spent more time looking for that photo from years ago than I did anything. My apology

 

Nice! Yeah I love my Taco, that thing is so much fun to drive. Unfortunately it's on the operating table right now. I had a cracked head with one of the cylinders flooded. I'm at a stand still right now on that project pending funds for an engine rebuild from Yota1. But being on this site is tough cause all that money that should be going to the Taco goes to mods for my Tundra

 

I've never seen a silver phone control button. This is mine from my '18...
