    Okay, after a bit of searching (I originally was considering the BeatSonic stuffs) but I found what looks like a much better option (and cheaper). The Crux AVITY-01. Has anyone used one?

    Why better than BeatSonic? BeatSonic has a button to override. The Crux uses your steering wheel controller to override the lockout. Much better, cleaner IMHO. Crux is about $125 - $150. Beatsonic is $250. Both does navi lockout override, phone mirror, etc..



    I still have not pulled the trigger yet as I am still researching and looking for feedback. Let me you know if you have experience with Crux before. Thanks.

    Never mind on the Crux unit. It doesn’t fit (work) on 2016 or later Prius.

    Thanks! I was looking and saw three different models, only one of which we suitable for the 2016 Prius. As mine is a contract vehicle I shan't be investing in mods, but thought I'd investigate the claim anyway.
