I used a plastic pry tool to remove the silver trim piece (metal tools leave scratches). For the AC vents, just pull them loose by hand, they are only held by bezel clips. The pry tool is used to remove the air bag status monitor (also held by clips). Then you need a 10mm socket with an extension to remove the 4 bolts that secure the radio to the frame
This 2016 modal did not include a cd player. The models 2013 thru 2018 with cd player slots are still compatible with this upgrade (new head unit just doesn't support cd)
Hi! Thank you for the comment, I am still using the OEM camera and speaker system. Everything is compatible with the new head unit. It just has two yellow RCA connectors, one for the backup camera and one for front camera that my vehicle don't have. So reconnect to the second yellow connector if the backup camera says no signal
Really like your videos! I purchased parts to add ambient lighting to my 2017. I am hoping I can just tie into the center console ambient light with a pigtail, have you thought about doing this?
Have you looked at other replacement head units? I see a growing number of them. The greatest concern is compatibility. I don't want to lose any features, only gain Android Auto and other features.
I saw a few ones that were a lot cheaper, but they come with compatibility issues. Even this one has some; like the dynamic compass no longer working (not sure if it will work in your case). Otherwise it keeps all other functions and adds more functions
@@YourHostNathanBurke The dynamic compass turns automatically when you make a turn with the car, to show if you are going North, south, east or west. In my case it's stuck pointing north
Hi, thank you for your video instruction; you're very clear about how to install it. I really appreciate it. Does this head unit keep the RAV4 old oem head unit's functionalities and features such as the door settings? Thanks
Yes, it keeps everything and even allows you to change more settings you couldn't see before (at least in my case). Now I have settings to change gauge cluster color, door lock options...
Probably a wire not connected or one that did not click snug. You should just recheck the wiring, here is a diagram showing labels drive.google.com/file/d/1Zj9JaCXEdFYR1syPC8mzcT9TUI-X5pZu/view?usp=sharing
My car is not equipped with those sensors, but it will work if yours is. In mine, there is an option to mute the audio when the car is in reverse, that option is available in the new head unit
I have the Sygav , i was first to install it in a Rav4 2017 hybrid. it still has the Android 8. MCU MTCE_V33.78_1 do you have a better MCU and which file should i update , also how do i get it to Android 10 or 11
Is the radio compatible with the dashboard for the small display on the screen and does the display for the battery hybrid function still work? The tank and remaining liter display also work with it?
If you are referring to the ones in the glove box, most of the time I don't use them, they charge phones at 1 Amp, so slow. Good for keeping a power bank fully charged in glove box
Hi, I'm not sure about other trims (especially if they come with premium features), but in my case all functions and settings available through the OEM head unit are still available in this after market head unit.

Hi mate. I would like to change the radio in my Toyota rav4 2017 hybrid, only my car is an English model with the steering wheel on the other side, is this not a problem? If not, please give me directions where I can buy such a radio. It needs CarPlay, Android and, of course, retain all the functions that I now have in the original radio. I read where. that apparently these radios are not suitable for right-hand drive cars. Please let me know and send me the link where to buy this radio. Greetings from the UK. Thank you

Email in the video description
Hi, I bought it and installed it. Everything worked fine until I turned on the heat/ac for the first time. Then it started making a clicking sound that would not go away. So I put the original radio and the sound went away. I tried putting the new radio back but the clicking sound came back as soon as I turned the heat/ac on. Did that happened to you?
I've installed a similar unit in my 2018 Rav4, however I can't get the steering wheel controls to work - I suspect i need to select the correct canbus protocol in the stereo settings, can you tell me what yours it set to?
thinking about getting this for 2013 rav4. Isn’t it supposed to connect via WiFi w ur phone? Hows the backup camera and steering wheel controls? Phone calls?
Thank you for making the video. Do you get good enough GPS reception with the receiver inside the compartment? Or do you need to run the wire out and stick it to the windshield?
I get good reception and it never lagged. Sticking the GPS module out would yield better reception for tricky situations, but I prefer the clean install. Same with the external mic. The built in mic isn't so bad I ended up ditching the external one
Yes, it works with the factory camera, basically plug and play. It upscales the image to fit the new display without distortion. If your car has dynamic backup grid lines, they will keep working
Hello, I don't speak English well. (I'm using Google Translate) Could you tell me where to change the language of the unit from English to Spanish. Thank you.!!
Bro im planning to buy this, but I see some have GPS unit and some not. Is that for navigating without the phone data via hotspot? So you can directly navigate on the headunit?
You will still need internet connection for google maps to allow navigation. You can tether to your phone or just launch Apple Carplay/Android Auto and it will seamlessly mirror your supported apps onto to head unit making navigation simple. Only down side is the 1A charging (Kinda slow). I'm dropping a follow up video soon
Hi, A quick correction to my previous response. I realized that the navigation works without connection. But you have to use the app IGO719WD_PAL. If this app is not preinstalled in the head unit, you can install it manually. The APK file comes preloaded (File browser/SD Card/IGO_PAL). Not sure if it is worldwide but the U.S checks. Apps like google maps and waze require connection, but you can download offline maps in google maps which can serve for a somewhat offline experience@@uA_1905_hY
@@YvonSmart cool, im in the EU and havent seen that app. I installed yesterday my headunit and noticed when I didn't connect the GPS I have no speed on the mainscreen. So that's nice to have. I think there are more benefits, lets using it for some days :) yes what you said I also think its needed for offline navigation..
You may have pulled it too hard when removing, but check if the two yellow clips are still attached to the part, otherwise, it will not stay. Picture attached: drive.google.com/file/d/1Boznwz5HcoYOU1a0mf7L17YrQcbnsRPs/view?usp=sharing
Thank you so much. Other question. I don't remember if the old stereo has them. If I don't have them. What the name of it? So I could buy them and made it work
I leave them in the glove box barely used, but they can be used to charge devices (1A only, slow charge). But you can also connect a flash drive or hard drive, good for watching downloaded movies. They also support Android Auto and Apple car play. Follow up video here: ruclips.net/video/1JHChxdhA08/видео.html
Yes I did. Everything was just plug and play so I kinda skipped that part. There were however two connectors on the new head unit that did not have a corresponding connector to the car, they are to be ignored (functions the car does not support)
That's one of the down sides of aftermarket head units. There might be a future update on the android head unit that will support HD radio, but for the bird's eye view, that's a premium feature that the car manufacturer won't allow to transmit to an aftermarket system
I'm not sure to be honest, all cases that I have encountered regarding bird eye view are incompatibility issues. But I don't know all after market head units, so some might work@@jakelacanfora2780

@@NessPhace Not sure what's wrong, but It should work since everything is compatible with the existing sensors. I would go through the whole wiring and make sure every harness is all the way in (clicked)
Yes, the steering wheel controls work perfectly except for the compass inside the gauge cluster. It s not able to sync the data from the GPS module to the compass within the gauge cluster. I'm working on a follow up video on this head unit
Glare makes it unusable during the daylight. Drivers seat view reflects sunlight from back passanger window (even if tinted), so cant see map directions, and Carplay interrupts music constantly so the audio directions are also not functional. Because the headunit screens are not able to pivot left to right, the glare is unescapable. I spoke with a custom audio/body shop and they charge $150/hour to try to mold a custom mount casing frame that angles screen more toward the drivers side (away from passanger window light reflective glare) and down more too (to reflect the inner door panels instead of reflecting the higher lit windows). Seems like too much money and work when the manufacturers need to just make these adjustable on a pivotable head. ... Also, not even sure if the cage behing the screen CAN be customized, since it is securely bolted into the dash at a solid, fixed position. =( Not really trying to spend $1000 plus extra for a radio I cant hear while using a map I cant see, could cause me to wreck my car and is dangerous to injure people in accident trying to shield the screen for directions on the map or to change the music sigh
In my 2016 Rav 4, I already tried the Pioneer 7 inch, from BB, and also tried the Sony 7 inch anti-glare (was worse because the glare was fuzzy and light was dimmer making it even harder to see, than the more reflective glare shiny brighter Pioneer glass screen). I am considering paying double for the larger screen but custom shop says its easier to manouver the smaller screen frame to mold and pivot ... HELP?!!
@@leahlott1463 haven't noticed the screen being so reflective in my case but definitely good to know about. The screen could have been a bit brighter but I find it decent. are you using the same unit?

@@taylormeyers2604Must be the wire harness. Double check the main harness, the ones that controls the SWC look like this drive.google.com/file/d/1Bq7kvgWBMDHq8d0PDn49dl4q9FsIC5Sm/view?usp=sharing
does it have RDS radio system ?? Thank's
Yes, it does
My factory stereo went out. It just keeps reloading. Will this stereo work still?
Yes, it should
Can you put the link of this product please
Sure: amzn.to/3o5U9OX
Any advice on how to get the factory back up camera to work?
It's just plug and play. If it doesn't work, swap the yellow RCA cable, there are two of them
Ive swapped them a few times and neither are working ):
@@NessPhace Not sure what's wrong, but It should work since everything is compatible with the existing sensors. I would go through the whole wiring and make sure every harness is all the way in (clicked)
I am looking for a reccomendation to replace my OEM 2017 RAV4 radio. my SUV has a reverse camera. What say anyone
This head unit will work just fine. Watch all my 4 videos about it, I covered all the good and bad
I have an iPhone will it work with that? 😅
Yes, it supports both Android auto and apple car play
How about swc? Do they work?
Yes, the steering wheel controls work perfectly except for the compass inside the gauge cluster. It s not able to sync the data from the GPS module to the compass within the gauge cluster. I'm working on a follow up video on this head unit
Glare makes it unusable during the daylight. Drivers seat view reflects sunlight from back passanger window (even if tinted), so cant see map directions, and Carplay interrupts music constantly so the audio directions are also not functional. Because the headunit screens are not able to pivot left to right, the glare is unescapable. I spoke with a custom audio/body shop and they charge $150/hour to try to mold a custom mount casing frame that angles screen more toward the drivers side (away from passanger window light reflective glare) and down more too (to reflect the inner door panels instead of reflecting the higher lit windows). Seems like too much money and work when the manufacturers need to just make these adjustable on a pivotable head. ... Also, not even sure if the cage behing the screen CAN be customized, since it is securely bolted into the dash at a solid, fixed position. =( Not really trying to spend $1000 plus extra for a radio I cant hear while using a map I cant see, could cause me to wreck my car and is dangerous to injure people in accident trying to shield the screen for directions on the map or to change the music sigh
In my 2016 Rav 4, I already tried the Pioneer 7 inch, from BB, and also tried the Sony 7 inch anti-glare (was worse because the glare was fuzzy and light was dimmer making it even harder to see, than the more reflective glare shiny brighter Pioneer glass screen). I am considering paying double for the larger screen but custom shop says its easier to manouver the smaller screen frame to mold and pivot ... HELP?!!
@@leahlott1463 haven't noticed the screen being so reflective in my case but definitely good to know about. The screen could have been a bit brighter but I find it decent. are you using the same unit?

It’s works with Apple CarPlay? Wireless or connected via cable ?
Both wired and wireless
Tesla screen?? LOL
$600!!
Do all the steering wheel commands work, such as volume, channel change, and the menus displayed between the tachometer and MPH?
All the SWC work, except for the compass (no longer dynamic). I made two follow up videos, you should watch them if you are planning in buying this head unit
