I'll have to cut the top edge of the stick on bezel that the Pioneer HU came with so I can stick that to the top edge of the front of the HU. Should take care of that gap.

I have a small gap at the top of mine which I was able to minimize to nearly un-noticable.

There is a small amount of up/down movement of the HU that can be realized via the 4 screws securing it to the dash assembly. Holding the HU in place with the 4 screws slightly loose, try sliding it up and down. You should notice that you will be able to raise the HU about 1/16".

Give it a shot.

I tried re-positioning the HU. Loosened the four screws holding the mounting brackets in then pushed up on the bottom of the HU to raise it as much as possible. While holding it up, I tightened the screws. Helped a little bit, but the gap was still very visible. So, I took that plastic trim pieces that comes with the HU and cut it up so all I had left was the piece that goes along the top edge of front of the HU.

Looks better now:

I'm all out of the ones from the group buy at this point. From the Philippines you would probably be able to order the part from a Toyota dealership in Australia (I believe that the Toyota Follow-me package is offered as an option there). If not, it's readily available from Europe.

paulort · 07-06-2009, 10:07 PM

I am actually getting ready to do another European order, and I am going to grab a few more of these in the process.

DED1982 · 08-03-2009, 03:07 AM

Cool, well, count me in, I'll pay right away! What other pieces were you thinking about getting from over there? I love stuff like this!

Thanks in advance for all the work and planning you've done for the forum.

There are a couple of people who are looking for the vertical trim pieces that would be required to use some of the Chinese HU's. Also, I am going to get a new set of center caps for my TTE wheels, and I am seriously considering getting a European RS front bumper for my 09.

Post a thread of goodies available, I'm sure the GB sluts will poke interest!!!!!

I'm down for 1 as well. I'm planning on putting in a new stereo here soon.

I just want to double check that this will work for a 09 Yaris Sedan, correct?

No. The sedan's radio trim is different than the LB's.

I'm interested in some of the vertical trim pieces. I've been holding off on the Chinese GPS unit until I read a review of it, but I can't find anyone who has one.

There are a couple of other people who had inquired about those two pieces. They are about $90 plus shipping for the two from Europe.

is there still going to be another gb for the true Double Din Radio Trim for Liftbacks (180mm opening)?
If not are there other ways of getting the Double Ding Radio Trim???

CTScott · 08-09-2009, 09:53 PM

At some point within the next month I'll be putting one together.

DED1982 · 08-10-2009, 01:01 AM
