Something that's been long overdue and one of what I hope to be a few mods in preparation for Toyotafest 2018.
I'm curious mate i actually still have the factory head unit. I've actually seen a facia kit and a wiring harness on ebay for the Mk2 yaris and i was planning to swap a kenwood unit in because my factory unit is playing up. Did you need a cage adapter to make it fit in the hole or is a standard size?

There was an adapter kit that made my head unit fit. I believe it's both a metal bracket that goes on the radio and into the dash, as well as a plastic trim that goes around the radio to fill the space around the face. Although my radio is a double din, they vary a bit in size so an adapter kit is typically needed.

Different markets do not necessarily have the same DDIN opening in the dash. Some of us here in North America have installed the OE trim piece that we had gotten from Denmark in a group buy. The opening in North America measures 200mm, and the trim from Denmark measures 180mm. Aftermarket DDIN HUs typically measure 180mm across, hence the need for side filler trim kits here.

Ah. Thanks for the heads up mate. I will pull my head unit and make some measurements just to make sure.
