Anyone buy a Yaris LB. Basic type? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Don't sweat the roll up windows. Piss on the "I've got to have it all even though I don't need it and can't afford it" American mentality. That's why our whole economy is in the toilet. You made an intelligent choice so be proud of that.
As for the lack of a radio, go to any electronics store and spend $150 on a decent radio/CD/MP3 player and you'll come out ahead of anyone who paid so much more for the lackluster factory unit. Your car is already wired for it with speakers, too. My car came with a super heavy factory radio that has now moved on thanks to Ebay. I replaced it with a new Sony unit with MP3/CD, aux input, USB input, and remote control for only $140. It was easy to install and sounds at least 20 times better than the factory unit even with the factory speakers. The only thing I don't like about the base model is the lack of a rear wiper. My car has one and I wouldn't be able to see out the back without it. That should be standard on all LB models.
