I managed to buy a Toyota audio system off eBay for a decent price. It is the version with the TomTom GPS in it, the unit specific name is the Toyota TomTom "Follow Me" navigation system.

Well the reason I got it cheap is because the SD card maps are corrupted according to the seller so it doesn't load the maps properly. But that's not my main issue as I actually wanted the unit for bluetooth and MP3 playback... and of course aesthetic features.

How do I mount this unit in my car? I know I'll have to take the dash out and remove the factory audio in there now (done that before so I know where I'm at LOL). I've been provided with mounting brackets and screws... is there anything else I need? Do I need any special fascia ears or alike?

And in regards to the maps issue, do I contact TomTom, Toyota or Fujitsu Ten/Eclipse (The manufacturer)?

Thanks.

i should also add that this is the older version with the silver 3.5" tomtom unit, not the newer 4.3" tomtom currently on offer at toyota.

There will be a guide on the net for removing the stereo from a 1zz... just google it, being a toyota unit it should just plug in to your existing harness.

As for the maps, you can either get them from tomtom, or 'acquire' them from a place like ********.com
