    Phoenix Android Radios. They have a new version out where you can select silver, matte black, or glossy black for the trim, and it has a much more powerful processor that runs Android 10. I am seriously considering upgrading.

    • What do you do for data on all 3 devices, a SIM card in each?

    On the head unit:
    • Did you lose any functionality over the stock head unit?
    • Multiple camera inputs, or would I still need a FRAC harness?

    I'll add a question to yours. Speaking of functionality, how about steering wheel controls?

    Finished up the bumper. Absolutely ecstatic with how it came out. Just took a quick pic, nicer ones are coming.

    Still have to make some fog light brackets for my SS3’s, install the S8 30” bar, and get a winch.

    Tablet on right linked to a WiFi OBD2 for Torque Pro. Tablet on left I pair with my iPhone for data for Waze. WAY increased functionality over stock HU, input levels can be adjusted so it really opens up the JBL system over stock. Plus there are sub outs for my JBL 1,000 watt amp and JBL 10" subs. Multiple video inputs so you can have both front and rear camera access without FRAC.

    Trying to figure out, is Phoenix just a cool name or are they based in PHX ? Going to be driving through there in the spring and if they have a showroom get a first hand look at their stuff before pulling the trigger.

    Put on some bumper shellz from ecoologic. Came out decent, but I forked up the passenger side parking sensor and the clip holding the wheel well guard. Hopefully its not too expensive to fix. 77DF1106-C2A3-4F92-A080-8501CAD5917B.jpg

    Installed the Meso Customs 3-piece chrome delete kit for the center console. PITA with those plastic welds holding two of the pieces in place, but once I drilled out the holes and broke off the small ones on the shifter piece, it was easy to complete.

    Thinking of doing the same, but I was curios about the wiring inside the console. Does it just plug into the 12V outlet? Does it interfere when you open the console lid to retrieve anything?

    there is a Y harness that is plug and play from the charger to the 12volt. There is an exposed hinge piece you attach to route it cleanly

    Just so you know, my experience has been this is more of a battery maintainer than a charger. If I really need to charge my phone I still plug it in because you’ll get maybe a few %/hour IME. I’ve tried different phones and cases with same results.

    Its been a while since ive done a mod on the Tundra as ive been more focused on an FJ I picked up a few months ago. Today I installed new map and dome lights from Meso Customs. The drivers side map light has been out since 1 month of ownership after installing some LED bulbs from Amazon. Once I removed the upper map light console I noticed the white connector block for the drivers side light had been moved and disconnected which is why it wasnt working. Feels good to finally get that fixed. Oh and these meso custom lights are awesome!
