    @Krisgo316 - I just did this and it’s works okay. Music cuts out every few minutes so I ordered the wireless CarPlay adapter and hoping that fixes the issue.

    just curious - did you get XM, wifi or any of the entune functions to work? Any tips are appreciated as I’m two days in and still figuring it out.

    Any chance you can share part numbers? Overall was it worth it? Does everything work and work well?

    Sorry I just saw this. XM radio works and everything is still going just like it was made for my 2015. It was worth it to me. They are probably way better radios out there but I wanted to stick with factory upgrades. I love the apple CarPlay feature which is really what sparked me to buy this.

    I have a 2021 OEM Tundra CarPlay unit in my 2019 Tundra. Got the harness from Autoharnesshouse. Works like I want it to. It really depends on what you are going after. I simply wanted the bigger screen and CarPlay and it works well for those two things.
    You can add a Carlinkit or something similar and make your CarPlay wireless and your set.

    Any chance you can share part numbers of the JBL head unit and the JBL amp? Perhaps even the harness?

    For anyone wanting to do the Entune 2.0 to 3.0 upgrade (no need to chime in that aftermarket units are better value :D - fine - but after selling the old, came out under $400), I purchased the following from FB marketplace:
    -20/21 TOYOTA TUNDRA JBL AMPLIFIER - PN# 86280-0C230
    -20/21 TOYOTA TUNDRA JBL HEAD UNIT - PN# 86140-0C420

    And the required harnesses from Auto Harness House for the Entune 2.0 to 3.0 w/ JBL conversion: https://autoharnesshouse.com/entune.html
    Best to reach out to them to tell them what you are doing so they can get you the appropriate harnesses. Brian Doll will get you straight. Excellent to work with.

    The installation was easy, and everything works perfect. Great upgrade if you can get the required parts at a good price.

    Looking to do the Entune 3.0 swap for my 2014’ 1794 Tundra. Besides the increase in screen size, any improvement on the resolution ? Currently running carabc harness and the resolution is terrible

    I really did not notice, but I would say it is the same resolution.

    Hi cdavi060, was there any sound improvement going to the newer head unit?

    Thanks.

    No it is generally the same. Surely not any improvement.
