    Replace the headunit with a unit that has CarPlay/Android Auto or navigation.

    I bought a harness from ukrain, I installed it with the rest of the parts. Worked not bad, but I lost the maintenance features on the radio system. Any ideas??

    not sure outside u.s., here, we'd look for a h/u proven to work with all the prius features, including steering wheel buttons. there are lots of replacement audio threads here with details.

    If you want to retain steering wheel controls and other OEM features of the car to the stereo you need to get the iDatalink Maestro module. You don't get everything but you get all the important parts.

    Why not use your SmartPhone? GoogleMaps is always up to date, and it comes with the phone (at least mine does) :)

    I do but was hoping that Toyota would fix this issue. Do you that they don't install the maps on all Toyotas in my country. Very absurd l.

    a lot of us have been hoping since 2004. now that they have started adding car play to some models, we hope anew.
