AWESAFE has been quietly crushing it with plug-and-play stereo upgrades for Toyota owners — from Tacoma trucks to Highlanders and multiple generations of Prius and Corolla. If you want wireless CarPlay or Android Auto in your older Toyota without spending $800+ at the dealership, this guide is for you.
Below, you’ll find a breakdown of compatible AWESAFE units for various Toyota models, plus install tips and links to the Amazon listings.
🚙 Toyota Tacoma (2005–2015)
Product:
Product not found for ID: awesafe-android-carplay-stereo-for-toyota-tacoma--2005-2015
Why it fits: If you’re running an older Tacoma, this is a major quality-of-life upgrade. The screen looks OEM once installed, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto work seamlessly, and you’ll get a nice bump in sound quality. It’s also one of AWESAFE’s most popular models for a reason — straightforward wiring, clean fit, and strong WiFi/BT performance.
Install Tips:
- Be patient with the factory clips around the dash — a trim removal tool will save your fingertips.
- Steering wheel controls usually work right out of the box, but double-check the harness match for your exact trim/year.
- Use the built-in DSP settings to fine-tune the sound — it can make factory speakers sound a lot better.
