Hi quick two questions, first did you use stock microphone or you had to run external one. Second question how is call quality , can people on the other side hear you loud and clear?
Not many aftermarket radios utilize the stock microphone. This radio comes with a built in microphone on the radio screen. It is okay, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best. They do add an additional microphone you can hook up and route to anywhere in the car. And that one sounds much better.
Very nice install! Are you able to stream Netflix when parked? Or at the very least mirror iPhone screen to the radio to watch Netflix? Would be nice to use for camping trips or waiting at the Costco gas station 😂
@@MattZiggyfor me having Apple CarPlay was a better upgrade then having the instrument cluster navigation, unless your truck already has Apple CarPlay, would not upgrade either!
Hi, can you send me the exact model of radio you use on that video for Tacoma I just want to make sure to get the right one for my truck? I checked the link in the description but looks different from the one you installed on the video if you have the info I want to get the same one.
Hello, sorry for the delay in response, Idoing has been changing up a bunch of things and how they are selling the radios.

Yes the brand is idoing. It’s a great radio, have this radio in a few of my cars. But I have put the link in the description from where I got mine from.
I have the JBL system, and after changing the radio I did not notice any improvements nor did it get worse. But I have put this radio in other cars and the sound is usually an improvement from factory.
Ok I watched your video , I know you use mic built in the radio, how is call quality, and mostly is stock jbl amplifier turn on and back boom box working ?
As I replied to the other comments, the mic quality is okay from the built in one. I recommend you hook up the external one and route it somewhere. This does work with the JBL system. And everything works as normal. Might almost have slightly better sound quality.
i’m trying to figure out what size screen to get for my tacoma i just got recently 2018 tacoma .. it doesn’t have gps i want to upgrade my radio any suggestions??
I didn’t see any sub outputs on the back of this unit. I have 2 twelves in my truck and my stock radio took a crap and I was wondering if this had a sub output for the back
For sub outputs, it is in a separate harness that I did not plug in. Since I was not going to use it. But this will work with after market subs if you have them.
Yes this will work on a 2016 Tacoma. Here is the link to the radio, and a discount code to save a few dollars. idoing2006.com/products/idoing-10-2inch-android-12-radio-head-unit-for-toyota-tacoma-n300-trd-sport-2015-2021?_pos=1&_sid=dbe3a5e23&_ss=r DISCOUNT CODE: Brandon Stellmach
Honestly, I wish I would have upgraded sooner! This is a great upgrade from the factory radio. Now having wireless Apple CarPlay and a larger screen it’s a great radio, and I would recommend!
Thanks for the reply! I think because of that I’m opting to keep the existing head unit. I’ve upgraded all my speakers and added an amp 75wx4@4ohms with an LC7i. Haven’t added subs or another amp yet, but that is coming. Everything has dynamat and designed my subwoofer box in solidworks this past weekend. Everything is really tight, but got it designed to down fire 3 cerwin Vega 6.5” subs driven by a kicker 800.1.
I am not sure, I know the radio says it works up to the 2021 model. Not sure if anything has changed for the 2023. I would reach out to idoing to verify fitment before ordering.
