I paid $109 for a new car pull out radio and $29 for the ipod cable (both from Ebay) with the special connector for plug and play to the Scion radio.
It's a cheap setup that fits right into the yaris, no adapters needed!

Hey Mike,If this is the same head unit its got that orange display that I think looks crappy And dont like? still Way better than what i got now!

since you dont like the small LED type screens - i suppose youd prefer a little Graphical LCD.

to you mentioning speakers - i wouldnt even go down that route with $300 hence itd be kind of pointless without an amp. you could suffice with stock speakers as long as the head unit puts out enough wattage/has a good sound processor.

Edit ::
In Dha Single Din Department - a quick search ive found
JVC KD-HDR60 - $98
DUAL XHD7720 - $103 (can add bluetooth for 20 bucks)
Pioneer DEH-P5200HD - $100 *

*Personally I'd choose the Pioneer for my single-din setup - having been a previous Pioneer Yaris Owner. The thing just sounded amazing

with about $200 left - you actually could buy a great set of speakers and amp or a nice sub and/or amp.

if you prefer a Double Din Unit though (if Nav tickles your fancy) Youd probably be in the ~200+ range. ANd i havent seen to many Double Dins that include HD Radio as well.

That's the one!
I'm used to the orange and don't really notice it anymore.
It's was the cheapest way for me to go OEM plug 'n play with decent power.
It's also less attractive to THEIVES.....
