    There is a product in PRIUS Shop for easy connection of iPhone and Android phones. Does anyone know if it would work with the smaller PRIUS display, shipped with the "base model" of the 2016 Prius?

    Contact Beat-Sonic. They are the ones that sell this add-on. (BTW. they are cheaper to buy from.)

    Contact Beat Sonic before you buy. If you have an android device, the newer phones from Samsung and Google Nexus lines don't support MHL connection.

    Dead end. Most new phones do NOT support the HML protocol needed to make this add-on work.
