Headunit Pictures - Phase 1 Yaris

[T-Bone]

Finally got round to taking a few pictures of the newly installed HU in my Yaris :)

As you can it is nothing special, but a huge improvement on the factory standard. It was an easy job, completed in 30 minutes and with little problems at all. The only equipment I used was a philips screwdriver, autoleads wiring adaptor and the headunit itself. Here is more information about the HU, (I got mine from argos for £60 somehow lol)

I have now decided to upgrade the factory Speakers in the car and amp them. I am getting a JBL amp for £100 with an autoleads wiring kit thrown in as well;

None of the stuff has arrived yet, cos I only paid for it all last night. Total cost is around £230 inc postage (I bought all the audio kit from the same guy and he only charged £10 total postage)

I am going to be installing it next week - again with the help of the written guides available on this website and one of my friends whose done a few installs. I very much doubt I would have even installed an aftermarket HU myself without this website so thanks very much for all your help so far.

I well and truly have the bug for installs now - when i first got my car I was adament I would only get a cd player and that would be it. £300 down so far and more to come yet no doubt.......

p.s. that isnt a wire hanging out of the side of the dash by the way (cough cough)

Looking good mate and thats what we're here for, to help! :D

Remember to post up pictures when the full install is complete!

As for the stealth shelf, make one yourself, if you get stuck ask chriscanavan on the site, he's made a few!
