it doesn't look double-din size to me looks about an inch or smaller height wise. measure your old stereo and if that one is twice as big then it is a double din. I'm basing my view on how big the gap for the cd is compared to the rest of the unit.
EDIT: crapola....the more i look at it the more i think it's closer to a double din than i thought....i'm done talking now This post has been edited by 6gcSTVT: Jul 2, 2007 - 4:33 PM --------------------  Darin H. |

150 isn't bad for a good mp3 radio.

Let us know how the install goes? Pictures of how/what you did would be nice. I saw this on a thread on another toyota forum, but forgot what car it was.

it might be a couple mms wider. what kind of unit is it, is it amplified or needs amplifier. If its amplified it is just plug and play. as it shoudl hook to yout originals plugs. If it needs an amp, some of them require the digital amp, and not an analog. Thats what i heard. I installed a 2000 6 disc plyer from a camry. it was a 20 pin and i modified it to a 15 pin to use my stock amp. i looked into these, but i did not want to cut the bezel...

Anyone with one of these radios that can say if it's amplified or not? I'm thinking about getting one.
Also, doesn't it light up orange? Are there options to change the color on it? Does it fit fine in the 6GC double din space? -Matt |

It's a T1807. The T1806 and T1808 do it as well, if I remember correctly. -Matt |

the Scion headunit has an option to change it to all different colors, it's just backlit colors thought.
IMO those radios are crap, they always give error codes or won't eject the discs or won't read them... but then again I do work in the service dept so we do mostly get people with problems... -------------------- |

What do you mean by backlit colors? Isn't that what we're looking for? For example, the factory Toyota radio backlite is green. This post has been edited by GotToyota: Jul 20, 2008 - 8:57 PM |
