No problem.

Wait, did your LB come with an integrated radio, which is why you can't do the tablet mod right away?

The Nexus 7 fits perfectly in a Double DIN opening. Unfortunately, my Yaris, like my old 07 yaris has a smaller than double DIN opening for the stock stereo. I think there are kits that will replace that part of the dash with a piece that has a double DIN opening. I'll have to get one of those when I can afford it, heh.

I thought all Yarii came with either an integrated HU or a double DIN sized HU???

It looks slightly skinnier side to side and way shorter than a double din, but taller than a single din.

Actually the opening is 200mm wide, which is 20mm wider than double DIN and it is double DIN height, which is why installing a double DIN radio only requires the trim pieces for the sides.

Ahh, thanks Scott, must just be my crappy eyes or an optical illusion, heh. The opening in my Aveo was perfect sized for the nexus 7. I may have some fiddling to do to get it to work in the Yar.
