Very nice!!

Vlad - they're in the glove compartment at the moment. You do get a Toyota adapter cable for the built in USB port but I haven't ordered yet because shipping is almost twice the price of the actual cable.

@sav do you have a link or P/N for this Toyota adapter cable? I'm trying to make the stock USB port work with the Parrot unit and I'm still a bit hesitant to modify the stock piece to make it work.

Cool, when are you getting your radio? Tip of the day - the American International fascia plates are what you're looking for.

hmm, they've ordered mine from a UK supplier, but it did specifically say GT86..
it will most likely be another 2 weeks before all the bits and pieces have arrived to do the installation in one go...

That sucks a little bit because everything is available locally. If they're ordering from the UK it's probably Connects2.

@sav How did you find installing the Microphone for the Parrot system? Which panels did you remove to draw the cable through?

Mines coming soon along with @Vladror 's and I'm still deciding whether or not to let SMAC install it or just do it myself. How's it been so far?
