dazstarlet Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I'm surprised I can't find a DIY guide on this or a Wiki entry as 1st timer peeps always have trouble with it. I am wanting to replace mine but reading numerous threads it all seems a bit daunting with many pitfalls. If someone could knock up a post with piccies it would be great. Otherwise I may have to give Halfords £29!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Billy SR Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) LOL, unscrew dash plastic centre console crap with like 4 screws. pull stereo out. put new stereo in and don't forget one of of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PC2-17-4-Toyota-Starlet-Supra-ISO-Stereo-Head-Unit-Harness-Adaptor-Wiring-Lead-/150672056458?pt=UK_Cars_Parts_Vehicles_Terminals_Cabling_ET&hash=item2314c1208a probably do-able in under 5 minutes.

Burns9213 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 If your replacing it with a aftermarket headin it and your car has original plugs then search on ebay for a toyota radio plug and make sure it has same plugs as in your car and then any aftermarket radio shoul plug straight in they are some wiring diagrams about but depends on model of your car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Two screws above heater controls. Then the center surround just pulls off. Unplug demister, hazard etc4 screws holding radio cage in place.Check your wiring fits and test new radio. (You may have disconnected the battery so reconnect or skip this if so)Unscrew old radio from cage, screw new radio in.Reverse the process of removal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
