  • Stereo Upgrade- Plus Satnav/ DVD Player/ Reverse Camera?

    Hi,

    My 120 has the standard stereo in it and as such has no aux input. I'm going to change the unit and thought that while I'm at it I might as well look at a unit that incorporates satnav. Then I thought that while I'm at it, I might as well go all the way and see about putting in a unit that also does DVD and is also compatible with a reverse camera.

    I've seen online that such a thing does indeed exist, does anyone have any recommendations as to which one to go for?

    Thanks

    It depends on how much you want to spend, i'm in the process of installing this http://www.kenwood.com/au/car/visual...tion/ddx917ws/

    This ws model was built for Toyotas and fits the Prado's dash perfectly and plugs up to all the factory connectors, except for the steering wheel control connector. I bought the Kenwood cmos 130 camera to go with it.

    It does everything you need except it doesnt have maps built directly in to the unit, you can use Android Auto or Apple Carplay and use Google maps.

    If you want something cheap perhaps look at the Joying units.

      Thanks. It looks good, but out of my price range I think. A quick look online shows these as being around $1100. Is that right?

      I saw this $625 DigOptions unit, which seems to be everywhere on google:

      Does anyone have any experience with one of these?

        Yes although i got it for 20% off with the current Ebay tech sale, but i just checked and ryda-online are now out of stock. All others selling this unit aren't in the sale unfortunately.

        If you plug DigOptions in to the search bar here on PP there's a lot of info on this unit. Some love them, others have had nothing but problems.

          I went with the Pioneer F60DAB top of the line headunit that came with a reverse camera from the Pioneer eBay store. Maybe a seconds unit or ex warranty but still comes with 12m warranty at half the price. Worth the price

          Currently units are the F970 or F960

              Just double check the size, mine is a 200mm unit designed for the toyota double din slot and it fits like a glove. The one you linked to is 220mm, it might be a bit big.

                  Repco sell some decent JVC DVD screen setups pretty cheap. Sub $400. I have one in our Prado, then you just by the dash mount kit to install it.

                  As for Nav, I use my iPhone with Google Maps or Waze on a Mount with the bluetooth connected, so it lowers volume and says directions then brings music volume back up. Works well.

                    These looks really decent for the price, good find. One of my main gripes is how slow most 7" screen units feel. These look super fast.

                    Are you going to take the plunge and get one? Would be keen to hear if it fits no problems.

                        Hmm, if only there was a work around.

                          Why not get a Toyota specific unit http://xtrons.com/pb76hgtap-6-95-hd-digital-octa-core-64bit-32gb-2g-ram-android-6-multi-touch-screen-car-dvd-player-custom-fit-for-toyota.html

                            Most of the head units I have seen have the controls you would most likely use on the left (USA) market, a few have the controls on the right/or middle, initially was looking at the 10.1" units but they are just ungainly the "VW/Skoda only" still has ISO connectors and is still double Din hardly an issue for handy people ;-)

                              I'm not actually looking to get one, but if I was a 9" screen would be nicer over a 7".
