Yes they do work with with the MP3 unit as that is the one I got to test it on. It would be wrong for me to advertise these on this forum and I did start this thread to find either Melbourne owners willing to allow me to test it or other stock head units to test. But if you want sales information they are on ebay or PM me more info. What I have been able to find is that the following US models have head units with an external CD changer 1998-2006 Mr2 / Celica 1998-2006 4 Runner 1998-2006 Avalon 1998-2006 Camry 1998-2006 Solara 1998-2006 Corolla / Echo 2001-2006 Highlander 1998-2001 Land Cruiser 2005-2006 Matrix 1998-2006 Rav4 1998-2006 Sequoia / Tundra 1998-2006 Sienna 1998-2006 Tacoma http://www.dension.com/icelink_comp.htm has a list of Toyota models that are compatible with their system and they also use the CD changer port on the factory stereo.

How many pins does it have? It could be the CD-Changer port if it has 2 rows of 6 pins.

still waiting for an answer to the obvious question..... Well I just took a stock stereo out of a 2005 corolla to write up some installation instructions and at the back there was four molex sockets, one for power/acc/ground, one for speaker wires and two extra sockets. The second socket from the left is the auxillary cd changer port, this is where the iPod adapter plugs into. you can see it here in this picture. The only secret I can see here is what the left hand socket is used for.

Well there is a version that has a USB connector that allows you to take any USB mass storage device and read MP3's off it. Normally people use 2 & 4GB flash drives with it but I have connected a 40GB HDD to one and been able to play the MP3's from it.

The only issue is that I need to see it working as well, thanks for the offer though. Looks like I might have to hire a corolla and test it on that. Well thanks to an unknowing hire car company we can confirm that we have a working ipod solution for 2005/2006 Toyota Corolla, Echo, Prado, Rav4 and 2005 Camry. The ipod can be controlled by the track up and track down on the stereo, playlists can be selected with the disc buttons and the ipod charges off the head unit.

The only issue is that I need to see it working as well, thanks for the offer though. Looks like I might have to hire a corolla and test it on that.

Thanks, the unit also fits the camry, echo, corolla and prado as they use the same head unit.

It plugs into an auxillary port in the back of the head unit.

Hi, Yes I am new here and yes I don't own a toyota. I have an adapter in my posession from China which allows you to connect an ipod to a factory toyota stereo and control and charge the ipod directly from the stereo. I have seen these devices fitted to current model Mazdas and they work great an even let you have video out to an LCD screen from an iPod video. Unfortunately I can't get out of the manufacturer exactly what models of toyota it fits, except that its for the Fujitsu-Ten stereo and that its for the new Corolla. Now a 95 Camry has a Fujitsu-Ten put I would think that that stereo is too old, so what I am after is two people willing to try out this adapter in Melbourne. If you have a stereo that looks like this http://pics.dodds.com.au/main.php?g2_itemId=64 or this http://pics.dodds.com.au/main.php?g2_itemId=71and live in Melbourne, could you please PM me or email peter@dodds.com.au with your details. If the testing is successful then these adapters should be on sale in Australia for between $150 and $170. Regards Peter.
