why not go to a local shop, and have them order from metra?

The wiring harness is a standard aftermarket Toyota harness.

Yes, I know you are concerned about the three plugs that come from your sedan, two whites and one blue right? Don't worry, only the two white plugs are used for aftermarket HU, and yes, the harness for the sedan AND liftback are the same.

Trust me, and anyone else who has installed an aftermarket HU on their Yaris.

Good luck.

My dash trim from installer.com shipped this morning.

I just spoke to them and they have two others in stock and three scheduled in tomorrow.

Crutchfield has none.

If you want one it's actually $24.95: http://www.installer-data.com/item/d...php?it=99-8216

The wiring harness again is the 70-1761.

That's about the right price for the Metra 99-8216.
And the harness 70-1761 WILL WORK for the Yaris Sedan + Hatchback
hint hint nick1983

If you guys want something cheaper ($8.99 + Shipping), check this one out:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/07-Toyota-Yaris-C...QQcmdZViewItem

It is made by American International, and has brackets for both the Yaris Hatchback and Sedan.

I got mine from this seller "autoware302" and I have installed it in my hatchback. Guaranteed to fit!

Hey guys,

Just a note regarding the Metra Kit 99-8216.

The dash kit also comes with the Toyota harness, so you won't have to find a harness if you order the Metra Kit.

I had a chance to look at both kits from Metra and American International, and they are pretty much identical. The din pocket and brackets are all made of ABS plastic.

FYI, I have the AI TOY-K969 kit installed in my hatchback.

No it doesn't. Mine came yesterday and it doesn't include the wiring harness. That need to be ordered seperately.

Really?
I guess the ones I've seen are repackaged then.

How much did yours cost?
I saw one for sale at $24.99 with included the harness.

I got my Metra kit from installer.com on Tuesday. Just in time for the long weekend. It does not include the wire harness and you need to purchase seperately.

Mine was $24.99.

I went to Circuit City and got the Metra "Smart Harness" so I don't have to bother with soldering (costs more though).
