    I am looking to install a carplay radio. 2001 Tundra. I am looking to for something that fits and works well without breaking the bank. My current stereo does not have the Jbl logo on it. This is my first Tundra. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Read the Audio section of this thread, in the first reply. It’s sectionized: https://www.tundras.com/threads/so-you-wanna-buy-just-bought-a-1st-gen-tundra-eh.115928/

    After you read that, please tell me if you have door tweeters, if you have the in-dash amp discussed in that thread, if it still has the OEM radio installed, and if you need wireless CarPlay or maybe you’d be OK with wired-only CarPlay.

    Once you answer those three things accurately, I can give better advice. You need to know what you have before anyone here can tell you what you need. We can rattle off cheap brands all day long, like Atoto and other similar crap, but it only helps you get the radio, not what you need to install it properly in 20-30 minutes without frying your truck.
