I want to replace the factory head unit (which you pictured) and get a regular non-touchscreen type radio system with buttons and such - perhaps the OEM head unit from the 2012-2014 Yaris or something. I just don't have the time to switch it right now, since I have been working 6-7 days per week, 56-62 hours per week for the last 12+ months.
I'm not a fan of the factory head-unit myself. The sunny days here in AZ cause blinding glare off the touchscreen even through tinted windows), making it both useless and annoying as hell during those hours. Plus, I have zero use for Bluetooth, since I don't have any real use for a smartphone (a regular cellphone is fine for the infrequent texting that I need to do). Also, the raised lip at the bottom of the unit makes it difficult to press the #6 preset button in a normal fashion. Regular push-buttons work better and easier than a touchy, more-distracting touch-screen. If it wasn't for the steering wheel volume/ up-down preset controls, I would have yanked that head unit out of the dash and thrown it out of the window into oncoming traffic by now.
