Anyone know a way to make this work?

Your 2009 US Yaris should have the head unit that has the AUX button on it. If it does, then all you need is the OEM Aux jack and possible the cabling for it. pop out the plastic piece in front of the ebrake lever and if you see two connectors sitting under that piece, then you just need the jack. If you only see one (which has a single row of pins) then you need both the jack and the cabling. I have both available if you are interested.

Damn. I ASSumed that was just an 1/8" aux adapter, not a USB as well. Definitely buying one.

PS: Had a look in my 09 with a manual trans, the connector is taped up to the right of the shifter. You can't see it under the panel below the E-brake. If you pull up the shifter boot you should see it, and two others. Cut the white tape to release it and it will reach under the E-brake.

Cheers.

Actually for the 2nd gen Yaris it is just audio aux input (i.e. 1/8" headphone jack). That is the OEM universal AUX input.

There is an OEM ipod interface kit, but it has the 30 pin Apple connector.
