I had the original toyota headunit, I just upgraded to a MX5000BT best unit ever IMO... I like the BT system .... got it on onlinecarstereos for 294.00 free s/h
My toyota is a japan version and the headunit was to small for the slot so I have to spaces at right and left of the headunit :crap: I'm gonna use something to close it any advice?

it did came but it was useless because is only about 1/4" thick and the space that I have at each side is about 1/2'' thanks for your comments

:laugh: .......... well I like the BT option and is ok I have no complain about Sony]
other them no bitrate display on the screen
Make a frame out of some ABS maybe? Black plexi? Shouldn't be too hard.

I bet the aftermarket dash kit from metra or scoche would fill it nicely.
