New Head Unit in and kickin

Post by Whelan »

This thing is great! It gets so loud and I'm amazed the stock 6 speakers can keep up. The ipod connection is fantastic and the little remote makes it sooo much easier. Take a look at how well it matches the color scheme of the stock gauges and it looks pretty low key too.

Nice man, I was looking at double din headunits. But I went with the single. But it looks good and clean. How does it sound?

You have a clock on your console? That's way cooler than just the hazard button. Nice job on the install.

Looks good... I think it goes very well with the interior.

I got it. The stock HU on the Yota does not have a clock, I see. So if you have the A/C and Recirculate, is the lower button just a blank. Obviously ours is shifted down for the rear defrost. But I'm curious as to what that last one is for. If anything.
