GREAT video! Thank you for your time and effort to share this valuable information to help others. KZfaq was made for videos like this. I just bought a 2005 4Runner and I'm gradually doing the work to make it mine, upgrading her and getting her ready for her second life. I was contemplating an aftermarket Android head unit for Bluetooth and a backup camera. It was great to see that the Yaris head unit accepts a backup camera. This upgrade is now on my list. I saved this video in my 4Runner list. Until then, I bought the Anker ROAV Bluetooth FM transmitter to connect my phone's audio to the car audio system via an FM radio channel, and it also has two USB ports for phone charging. It integrates nicely into the 12V cigarette lighter socket in the center console.

What I can't get to work is AUX - I plugged in the existing 12pin CN702 connector, but the aux plug in center console does nothing. I would like to add a USB which should also connect through that CN702. I bought a AUX/USB unit with CN702 plug which is wired to a little box with AUX/USB inputs, but it did not work. Any advise on wiring AUX/USB into that CN702 12 pin? Thanks!!

@@tronixster Hi, no wiring mixed up Metra says that the balance and fader needs to be set to center before the factory radio was removed. Also, the turn volume should be up 3/4 before shutting off the vehicle WITHOUT shutting off the radio prior. I did that, but no difference, so will try a replacement unit. Interestingly, on Amazon there are quite mixed reviews on whether the fader works or not. Curious what makes the difference....

I haven’t made any videos about USB port installation but it’s very straight forward and you’ll just need to plug into the back of your head unit and run it out from underneath your dash. Here’s the cable you’ll need: amzn.to/3jIMDUN

Yaris head unit does not have a navigation but dealer can install it for around $500 so no go for me and it doesn't have Carplay or Android auto. This was just to replace my OEM Toyota head unit with another OEM Toyota that has bluetooth and touchscreen.

Praise God you found this video helpful and really appreciate the support. Yes PT546-00140 part will work perfectly fine, it will just say Scion instead of Toyota but it's identical part. As far as subwoofer goes you can draw sound from your rear speakers or you should have OEM subwoofer installed in the trunk area on passenger side if you have JBL system so you could tap into that. I haven't done much research on subwoofer hookup so I don't have much details.
