Picture 1 and 1.5
Remove the dash thingy...carefull, I fuked my 3 pins that were holding down the top part..wat u wanna do is push it backward, down and out..I fcked the one thats circled in blue..than after several frustration..they are all gone now :'( but it holds down onces I put hte side thing back..

Start from bottom up.

Picture 2 - 3
Unscrew those...I lost one of them so careful with the top ones..dont let it slide down to much!

Picture 4
Just to get ahead of the game, you will have to remove these from the old radio. Its fuckin hard to get it off. Get urself a power screw driver philip thingy. The trick is toe press it really hard for 2 sec and than pull back up slowly..i fucked 1 of my screw so I had to used somethign else to take it out.
Take both sides after unplugging the radio.

Picture 5 - 6
5 just shows u how clean it is back there.
One 6...take out the one marked red and let them hang out..those will plug into the female end of the harness, than the harness plugs into the dvd. Makes sense? if not i dunno, google it.

Picture 7
The yaris radio..DONT FORGET TO take off the side bracket off the radio and install tit on ur new dvd thingy. I took it off..power tool required or man on steriods.
My screw driver and black tape plus the harness from best buy. Remember back in picture 6? the one of them is the radio (complete right) the blue plug that was plugged into the radio will plug into the circled in orange and other into the other one.

install bracket from circuit city after installed the metal one you took off your old radio

Picture 8
Read w/e diagram came with ur dvd thingy..it shows pretty much wat to plug into wat...as u can see its right under my yellow attention paper. its VERY simple. red goes to red, red/black goes to red/black..duh?

Start connection the colored cables, twist it than tape it up nicely...once ur done.

Connect the cable that's on picture 8 to your dvd player, (the harness should be on it).
Go to car
I tried install the dvd than putting the dash onto it..didnt work so here's the deal.
put the dash face on your dvd first, make sure it fits nicely..when done slide it in and pop back ur AC (top) first, hit it hard..it wont brake, than hustle and make it snap on the bottom wit hthe knobs n stuff..

This was a very tight fit so ya..its very tight but wtf..i got it working.
yay
i didnt have to pay 120 bux for sum1 to do it, i only burned 40 bux!

Picture 9
The final product.
I didn't bother putting the TV antenna..im too lazy for that...

now if your installing amp and stuff..when i get my ssystem im make a nicer DIY

nice work, how far out does it stick from the dash?

[R0ME0]

Yea how far does it stick out? It looks like that thing comes out quite a bit!

[Blenjar]

Here..
Its the design..i have to open it that way to put in CD..

-- Blen

[Blenjar]

Its very tight on top. I have to press it firmly with my two hand to complete close it but I don;t cuz it just holds ..why bother? lol it works great and I can see it...
If there is a next time I'll get the one with the CD entrance in the front. no fliping or twisting...
