This

wont fit into here

img4094b.th.jpg

Because of this -.-".... its just a tiny bit too tall. I was thinking of sanding the fascia down so it will fit...

Anyone got any ideas? Or does anyone have the fascia that i can buy and mutilate to fit?

first of all does the player fit into the facia out of the car? is it an ebay player?? cos they usually arent double din.

the idea of puttin a player into a corolla is...

A. mount player into brackets with toyota wings to fill in the sides

B. clip the facia panel to the cd player and brackets. (yes it will clip together)

C. slide into hole in the dash and clip it in.

D. manouver the facia and player around to make it fit properly then do the 4 bolts up.

E. DONE

if this dont work the you'v done something wrong repeat step A.

The face plate is actually physically slightly to big to fit inside the facia. And i guess u can call it an ebay product. its an eonon e1091. I just measured it and its 2 mm larger than the stock headunit grrrrrrrr

and also its slightly narrower than the stock unit so i have gaps on the side. but they are not a big as a worry as I can't fit the dam facia on lol

Hey,

I had a similar problem with my JVC headunit

Mine was due to a nipple on the bottom.

I went to the wreckers (Pick n Pull) are nice and close - got a headunit surround - $15 - And dremled it to fit.

Because i have the Levin with the chrome aircon vents i swapped this over to the one i got from the wreckers.

Problem solved.

Yeah I was thinking of doing that Brad. Do pick and pull have facelift corollas? I know i've been down to pick and payless and they have none.

On a side note. I keep seeing you on North Rocks road. Dam your levin looks nice

check the dna website, the wings r on each side of the pocket, dna have just released the wings on their own but cant remember the part number.

if u take notice of ur standard player it has rounded sides and is aboit 18mm wider then any aftermarket which is what the wings r designed for, they do the same in kluger, prado 100s cruiser, 200s cruiser, yaris, late model hilux and hiace van, and some echos, theres prolly more but cant remember.

Just go into a Toyota spare parts department or try with an automotive installer. They aren't that expensive for the convenience of getting them. This is what you are looking for from Toyota (thank you djc for the code):

Spacer: Left - 86221 52050, Right - 86221 52060 ($16.60 each)

If you go to an automotive installer like JB, you can even get them for under $20 for the pair.

Not sure what they call but it comes with the single din tray and 2 side pieces.

I have a spare pair of these and if you want, $10 would be fine. I pay postage.

      overheated engine

      I drive a 2010 series 200 sahara V8 automatic. I recently towed a small caravan on a not that hotter day. The temperature gauge went to about half then dropped back to normal. The motor then went into limp mode and eventually stopped. On lifting the bonnet i noticed the top radiator tank had split all the way across. I have only two months ago had the complete cooling system checked with no defects. I called the RAA in South Aust and they tried to start it but just turned over but did not fire up. It was still pretty hot. I have been told the motor would be ruined by overheating. The car has been sitting at the repairers for 5 days now and as far as i know it has not been attempted to start. Before putting a new motor in it would it be worth putting a new radiator in it and see if it will fire up? Open to any suggestions at this stage.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Depends on how common/rare they are in your part of the world. The XZ trim was the second-lowest so didn't come with most of the fun bits that the full-fruit BZG/V/R models did, so it's not anywhere near as desirable stock but sometimes you have to make do with what you can find, plus you shouldn't feel as guilty modding the heck out of it since most of it isn't special.

      VSC, Traction Control, Check Engine lights all on

      I attended Toyota Preston for Aurion ATX 2013 major service today. Cost $~$1300. On the way home I stopped to pick up dinner. Two fault lights: engine and VSC lights came on when I restarted the car. Car drove home just fine. I can only return the car tomorrow for them to sort out. Annoyed. Let’s see if they’re still on in the morning.

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay
