Thanks Lil Abner, this is great.

Has anyone found a dash kit solution that doesn't include a dremel? I'm looking at the clarion nx602 which is 7"x6.4"x3.9" . (lol I'm just not confidant in my customization skills)

There's a mic near the map-light.

Cool so it should work even with aftermarket

Not likely as the mic plug is different than most aftermarket head units will accept. It would be nice if they offer an adapter, but I haven't found one yet.

Subscribed, I want to see how hard is to install an Android unit.

Buy a cheap tablet or an HP WebOS one and install Android. They're like 100-150 bucks and seem really great 16GB/32GBs

Lil Abner, Thank you for the step by step radio removal. Saves a lot of trial and error.

I installed the Pioneer AVH-P8400BH with everything else factory in my U.S. FR-S and then ran the AutoEQ with the special mic and the settings it came up with were:

0 2 6 -8 -2 6 2 0

It was tricky to get the menu item to stop being greyed out and selectable, I had to change my backup camera from battery to "off" and then was able to run the AutoEQ.

how does it work with the usb and aux connection at the bottom?

There's another Toyota wiring harness for the USB. I don't have the part number. Also talk to SVXdc about the AUX. he maybe able to help you out. He might know the part number for the USB too.
