Your right Kaotic, there are no apps installed on the head unit.

So, it appears the hardware is the same as other model vehicles, but the entune software you must not be able to get for the yaris.

If the gps module is installed, would it be in the head unit or some place else in the vehicle?

I asked the dealer if there was a way for me to get full function of the head unit with gps navigation and apps. He said no, you can't with the yaris. Does anyone know if I could buy this same head unit and gps module out of another model car and get it to work with these functions? It sounds to me the units are made the same until software install.

You'll need the the extension box that will enable the GPS portion to work.

Part number PT296-47141 https://www.toyotapartsdeal.com/oem/...296-47141.html


Then you'll need the GPS antenna kit. Part # PT296-00141-AA

That kit should include the antenna itself, GPS plate, cable ties, wire clips, and foam adhesive pad.


Lastly, the extension brackets. Part #'s 86211-0D140

Just install everything. I think the first link had an installation guide in it. Your local dealership is just being super lazy to look up information.
