New here with a 2014 Yaris LE

[Dodge Aries K]

So a friend of mine got a touch screen radio for his Prius C. Borrowed the "Extension Box" and... nothing. It doesn't work with this radio even though it plugs in fine. It might be because the software was outdated but I'm not really 100% sure. After seeing the navigation system on his car now though, forget it. Horribly slow and unpleasant to use. Plus, I have to use my phones for navigation anyway due to the nature of my job. If I can get a compatible box cheap enough I'll do it, but it's not a priority in any way.

One of the nice things about getting the radio for his car, I was able to get a microphone assembly and a USB/Aux plug from a Prius C for my 2008 Yaris. Now, unfortunately I had to cut the cables so I'm hoping to be able to solder them back together for the aux and USB, but if they work that will be cool. Ended up getting the proper faceplate thing from a wrecked 2012 Yaris sedan at a junkyard for $10 so that was a good step in the right direction. To save money, I'll be using the stock radio from my 2014 Yaris in there. Just have to order the antenna adapter and then I'll be able to get the new radio installed into the car and add the microphone to the factory spot up by the map lights so then the phone will work too.

So far, the 2014 has done almost 8000 miles of taxi duty without any issues besides the rear carpeting. I'm currently fighting with Toyota about it but chances are since it's out of warranty they won't care at all. I looked at a 2013 recently (Japanese built) and it didn't have the same issue... which I told them on the phone... so we'll see if they'll at least supply non defective carpeting for the car. Otherwise, I've come up with a way to make it not be so bad if I have to.
