Bluetooth Car Kit, Car Audio USB AUX Input Adapter Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 for Toyota Camry Tacoma Corolla Tundra 4runner RAV4

I opted to purchase a returned unit for my 2006 Highlander, to save a little money. What I received looked like new.The install was easy, thanks to videos on YouTube. The only glitch is that the connector was very, very tight in the socket on the back of the deck. In fact, it's so tight that I don't think that I was able to fully seat it. I let it go as good enough because it worked, and the alternative was to remove the entire audio deck to look closely at what was going on. I was anxious to finish, and I figured the connector was so tight that it would not pop out. If it does I can easily dive in again - it's easy enough. The install of the mic on the window post was easy and effective.Performance: Great! - so much better than having a single CD player and a wobbly cassette deck. All sources work well, including Bluetooth, USB thumb drive and Aux cable. Controls work from the steering wheel and the deck. For the thumb drive I can index forward and back through folders using the deck controls, and through tracks using the track control on the deck or steering wheel.Bluetooth operation is easy to set up and it reconnects automatically. Incoming calls on Bt interrupt the music and are easily answered or ignored. The other party in the phone says I come through loud and clear. By keeping the phone volume up the deck volume is reasonable and does not blast me out when I switch to radio.I use Bt almost exclusively, so I'm a bit shaky about how to switch between it and USB or Aux.One thing I haven't tried is playing through Aux while charging the phone. If there is a grounding problem it may show up then. But I may never do that, because I can't access the phone through the deck controls when using Aux in. One other challenge for me is enabling hands free dialing with my old Android phone. I haven't tried all the possibilities there.Bottom line: I love this thing. Very happy.Update, Oct 2022:Everything still works as when new, with a few new discoveries. First, the phone connects to the Bt shortly after turning on the car key, even if the deck is not switched on - a surprise. And it stays connected even if I have not selected CD/1, the mode on the deck to play the Bt source. In those situations, if I were to receive a call I don't believe I would get any notification, because the phone would be outputting to the Bt that is not connected to the deck amp and speakers. So if I don't want to listen to the phone over Bt, but I want to receive calls, I have to turn off Bt on my phone and take calls on the phone, i.e. not hands free.Consequently, almost always, I listen to music from my phone played over Bt to my car deck. I was pleased to learn that, if my music/podcast app is on pause when I get into the car, then I can resume play by using the track controls on my steering wheel. I don't need to open my phone. I can have the phone dial up a contact from my address book by using voice command.Mine is a 3 year old Android phone running under OS version 8. A newer phone might have even more control capabilities.Bottom line: I am still very pleased with this setup.

I have a stock 2006 lexus rx330. This was extremely easy to install. I wanted to keep my system stock because i like the lexus simplicity. The stereo system still sounds great and works extremely well. The steering wheel buttons were compatible. Besides- i hate modern car screens! The bluetooth system works and sounds great with extremely clean phone calls. The microphone that came with it works well. No need to switch to a more expensive mic. My friend was stoked and ordered one for her car. No need for the ridiculous giant apple car plays, etc. This does the exact same thing! But costs way less and you can keep your system factory. -----3 months later: It is still working well. 98% of the time it beeps on when I start the car. But every once in a while I have to reconnect my bluetooth on my phone if I was using my phone before I started the car.

Overall works well. Retains Stock feel of the radio by keeping the existing radio that came with the car in place but upgrading it to modern input standards. Was pretty simple to install as it needed to be plugged into the 6+6pin port on the back of the radio. I then proceeded to route the piece of hardware that was hooked up to the back of the radio to the glove box, as it was convenient enough to place there due to the length of the cable attached to the device. There's Aux, Bluetooth, and USB input available, which its great to have all three of these options.Only gripe I have with the product is that there's a little bit of very low volume noise that can be heard when nothing is playing on stereo. Most of the time, this little white noise coming out of the car's speakers can't generally be heard if you are driving, and will go away once something is playing on the stereo through any of the three input options provided on this hardware.For the money , this product is worth paying for and having if you want to maintain the original feel of the dash and want to keep everything stock looking in your car.

Only had short time. Normally I like to wait longer to review these type of items simply because many times they work great the first week only to crap out 2 weeks later. But I was so excited about this item I decided not to wait. RIGHT now I am very happy with purchase. It works for the most part as advertised. POSITIVE: I can listen to music from iPhone 7plus thru Bluetooth in my 2005 4runner. I was using a cassette adapter. Bluetooth music + 3.5 cable work great. When I get in the car and turn it on my phone automatically connects and you hear a acknowledgment sound come thru your speakers. Can't get any easier than that. I haven't tried usb adapter yet, but don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. Also I can confirm that the steering wheel controls work great with it. That was a very important feature to me and I am very excited it worked.. LESS POSITIVE: Bluetooth for calls works BUT in my car the volume is much lower than music. But it works. My wife says she can clearly hear me thru the included mic and doesn't hear any echo. The included cable to connect to iPhone thru lightning didn't charge my phone as advertised. But it is not an important feature to me since I have a regular outlet charger already in the car. Truly the ONLY MINOR gripe I have is I would have very much preferred a different type of connection on the cable coming into the back of the adapter. It is large enough that it limits where I can permanently mount the adapter due to the length it adds to the overall size of the adapter. But its something I am sure I can figure out. IF you buy this I would HIGHLY recommend watching some YouTube videos on how to install it. They were very helpful and made the whole process go much quicker and smoother. Everything in way of connection is pretty straight forward, which is good because directions are not as detailed as I would have preferred. Overall it is probably the best 60.00 I have ever invested in my vehicle. Now I just hope it holds up.......
