Hey hey, I just installed the unit into my yaris, 100% fit, and surprisingly everything works, even the AUX unit!

I have a question though..does anyone know how to get the IPOD/USB cable alone that work in the yaris? From what i understand, the wiring is part of the 2010+ scions' harness, and cannot be purch seperately..There's a guy from another forum that used to sell one.

i have found this (BIG pic):

Is it a complete bolt on type deal?

plug and play. 8mm socket to take out the radio bracket, and a philips screw driver to attach to the dash. nothing else.

Pick up a panel mount USB connector (or if you just want to stuff you iPhone in glove box, then just grab a USB M/F extension cable), and I'll give you a hand wiring it to the HU.

For a panel mount one I was thinking of a generic one like one of these. And, then we just modify the cable to make the connections to the back of the HU.

That looks tasty. I've got a Scion HU in my car too, but not the full banana one like that.

My AUX cable works too, so I don't know what the difference is between these and the older Scion HUs where people were saying that the AUX plugs no longer work after install. I'm also trying to figure out what to do with the back USB plug. I'm not sure I want to drill anywhere in the glove boxes. Keep me posted though on what you and Scott come up with. :biggrin:
