CV40 Altise aftermarket stereo

[warthog]

Hi all, new member here.

Just bought my wife a 07/11 altise from the auctions with 47k km on it. It drives well and is in pretty good condition, came with service Hx. I will be changing the oil and filter every 5k km from now though, 15k is too long IMO.

Plenty of room in the back for my long legged teenagers and the boot is big :)

The factory stereo is a bit ordinary though, so I was hoping to upgrade, but retain the ability to use the steering wheel controls. Ive trolled ebay a bit;

http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_odkw=%22TOYOTA+Camry+Altise+2011+GPS+NAVIGATION+DVD+8+IPOD+OZ+Map+Bluetooth+MP4+AUX%22&_from=R40&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xtoyota+camry+stereo+2011&_nkw=toyota+camry+stereo+2011&_sacat=0

and there is a fair array of units, all extolling their amazing features and ease of installation. :roll:

Found these too;

I was hoping there may be some people on here who have some experience on the subject and could point me towards a reasonable quality unit? One that doesn't require modification of the factory harness or plugs straight to the harness would be great.

Cheers, Chris.

Has anybody changed their stereo or used one of the eonon ones?

I have no commercial interest in stereos by the way. I am a paramedic in Victoria instead, worse luck :(

Thanks mate. Those Chinese units looked too good to be true. I'll steer clear.
