Easily allows a customer to add and operate Satellite Radio to their select factory Toyota car stereo system.

Englewood, CO (December 2018) – Looking to solve a need for Toyota owners that want to add SiriusXM® to their factory radio, but do not want to add visible on dash components, VAIS Technology has released their first SiriusXM-Ready™ interfaces (SXV300 Connect Vehicle Tuner Kit sold separately, SiriusXM subscription required). Two SiriusXM-Ready™ models are available for select Toyota vehicles; the GSR-TY51 interfaces to most 2014-2018 Corolla, 4 Runner,86, Highlander, Prius, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra, Rav4 and CH-R vehicles and the GSR-TY52 interfaces with the 2018-19 Camry, and 2019 Corolla iM, Rav4 and CH-R vehicles.

The VAIS Technology SiriusXM-Ready solution plugs into the back of the factory radio and allows for full control of SiriusXM channels and features through the factory radio and steering wheel controls. Both models connect to the factory Toyota radio using locking “OEM” style connectors making the installation truly plug and play. Both models connect to the SiriusXM SXV300 Tuner. The interfaces additionally upgrade factory USB input to be a “High Speed Charging port."

Eugene Kaspin, VAIS Technology CEO, “we’ve gone through a complete hardware change to make the interfaces SiriusXM-Ready and made them easy for installers to install and have the best user experience for consumers to operate. We are very happy to be working with SiriusXM and looking forward to certifying solutions for other brands”

Since 2003, VAIS Technology has been developing satellite radio adapters for vehicles that aren’t equipped with satellite tuners from the factory,” Dennis Hopper, Vice President of Sales, says. “While SiriusXM is more popular than ever, many new vehicles still don’t come equipped from the factory with SiriusXM installed. VAIS technology develops simple, easy to install integrated solutions that add SiriusXM, but preserve factory functions.

VAIS Technology introduces two SiriusXM-Ready™ interfaces for Toyota Vehicles.

Easily allows a customer to add and operate Satellite Radio to their select factory Toyota car stereo system.

May 10th, 2018 - VAIS Technology has released a new hardware platform (Gen 2) for their popular satellite radio adapters specifically designed for all vehicles including Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Ford, GM, GMC, Honda, Hyundai, Jeep, Land Rover, Mazda, Mercedes, Nissan, Subaru, and Toyota. This allows select vehicles to add the SiriusXM® SXV300v1 satellite radio tuner to their existing factory stereo, without compromising any functionality.

“Since 2003, VAIS Technology has been developing satellite radio adapters for vehicles that aren’t equipped from the factory with SiriusXM® tuners,” said Dennis Hopper, Executive Vice President. “While satellite radio is more popular than ever, many vehicles don’t offer an easy way to listen to it. Our company develops simple, easy to install adapters that add satellite radio but preserve factory functionality.”

The latest (Gen 2) platform improves on several key areas:

  • Better and faster processor
  • Behind the radio connection for all Toyota models including the new 2018 Toyota Camry
  • Upgrade the existing factory USB port to fast charging, on all behind the radio applications.
  • Adding optional USB fast charging port on all models.
  • Locking connectors for better automotive quality.

“We design our satellite radio adapters to operate very similar to the factory satellite radio systems,” Hopper explained. “While it takes more work on our part, our customers really appreciate the fact that they can now control their SiriusXM® using factory radio and steering wheel controls. That’s what really separates VAIS products from all others in the industry”.
