Toyota CarPlay & Android Auto Installation in Dublin

Radio King adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to Toyotas in Dublin: a car-specific Android screen for Corolla, Auris, Yaris, Prius, RAV4, Hilux, Avensis and C-HR with the Toyota Touch or Touch 2 system that never had CarPlay — units from €220 to €290, fitted in two to three hours — a plug-in wireless adapter for 2020-on cars that already have wired CarPlay, and an English unit plus Irish FM for Japanese-import Aqua, Vitz, Prius Alpha and Estima.

Toyota is the make we fit most

Toyota sold a whole decade of cars — 2011 to 2019 — with the Touch and Touch 2 system: a 6 or 7-inch screen with a row of physical buttons either side, and no CarPlay or Android Auto at any trim. There is no software update and no box that fits the Touch 2 screen, so the answer is a car-specific Android screen. It is the job we do more than any other, on Corolla, Auris, Yaris, Prius, Avensis, RAV4, C-HR and Hilux, and it is why there are so many Toyota case studies below.

From the 2020 model year Toyota fitted wired CarPlay across the range. Those cars only need a wireless adapter.

What changes on the dash

The Touch 2 unit comes out with its bezel and the Android screen goes into the same opening with a Toyota-shaped fascia — no gap, no cut trim. The steering-wheel buttons work through a CAN adapter, the factory reverse camera shows on the new screen with guidelines, and on JBL cars the amplifier is kept through the right harness. The climate controls on these Toyotas are physical and stay where they are.

Ask on WhatsApp
Does my Toyota already have CarPlay?

Toyota added CarPlay and Android Auto across the range for the 2020 model year — Corolla, RAV4, Yaris, C-HR facelift, Camry, Hilux facelift — and some 2019 cars gained it with a dealer software update. It is wired. If your Toyota has the Touch or Touch 2 screen with the row of buttons either side, from 2011 to 2019, it does not have CarPlay and cannot be updated to it.

What is the best way to get CarPlay in a Touch 2 Toyota?

A car-specific Android screen. It replaces the Touch 2 unit with a 9 or 10-inch touchscreen in a matching fascia, gives wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, keeps the steering-wheel buttons and the factory reverse camera, and costs from €220 to €290 supply-only. A CarPlay box is not made for the Touch 2 screen, so the screen swap is the only proper route.

Can you make factory CarPlay wireless?

Yes. On 2020-on Toyotas with wired CarPlay a plug-in wireless adapter does it in a few minutes. It is the cheapest upgrade on this page and no fitting is needed beyond pairing.

What about a Japanese-import Aqua, Vitz, Prius Alpha or Estima?

These arrive with a Japanese-language unit and a Japanese FM band that misses most Irish stations. We fit an English Android screen with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, and if you want the original radio kept we recode its FM band to the Irish one. One visit, and the car works like an Irish car.

Is a hybrid any different?

No. The screen runs on the ordinary 12-volt system, never the hybrid battery. Prius, Auris Hybrid, Aqua and Yaris Hybrid are fitted exactly like a petrol car.

How long does it take and what does it cost?

Two to three hours, usually the same day. Units are €220 for Yaris 2006–2010, Prius 2009–2015, Aqua, Land Cruiser 2008–2016 and GT86, and €290 for Auris, Yaris 2012–2016, Prius 2015–2020, Avensis, C-HR, Camry and Land Cruiser 2017–2020. Fitting is booked at checkout, one-year warranty on the unit and the work. Workshop in Rosemount Business Park, Dublin 11.
