Check these out...

Stereo Upgrade

AUX Audio Interface

Also, I would recommend looking at these two sites...

TacoTunes.com

Crutchfield.com

In my limited experience with Tacoma stereos, I would think that you would need to do some kind of speaker wire splicing to get the output to a sub on a stock deck. I hope all this helps!

My Stereo/Radio/CD player never shows the author or CD name. It always says “NO-TEXT” even for newer CD’s.

Very few of the new CDs have CD Text on the disc. I used to put them into the stereo myself. The old Pioneer decks kept that data for like 200+ discs. Since then, I have gone to the JVC (my wife got me a Xmas present

). The stock deck might not have internal memory for CD Text, but I would think that it should.

Good point. I’ll find a CD that I know has text on it and play it in another CD player and then do the same in the Tacoma. Truth will show.

That sounds like a perfect test. Let us know how it goes.

Every CD seems to not have any text info. I didn’t think this would be the great search to find a CD that contained information for the listener.

I have only seen one of my CD's display text. So I know my deck's text feature works, just think that there are limited CD's with text.

06tacoma · 03-06-2007, 03:03 PM

the only cd's i have every seen display text are mp3 cd's

I wasn't expecting that either.

I would test mine, but I had my truck for one week before I put in another deck. sorry.

ayyoitsp · 03-26-2007, 09:01 PM

Does anyone have wiring diagrams for the stock connectors? I'm not very confident about the neighborhood I live in, so I didn't want to upgrade the stock stereo. I'd rather just add a subwoofer to the stock system.

The simplest way I can think of is to just splice in a speaker-line==>rca adapter, but I'm not sure which wires I'd have to splice, and I don't care to rip apart the rest of the car to find out which wires go where. Any help would be appreciated. I basically just need to know one set of R and one set of L wires.

I still cannot find a CD that contains text. Anybody have and idea where I can get one? I want to make sure the player works ok, but I cannot find a CD to test this functionality. Otherwise it comes up and says “No Text”

I wish I could help. I don't use CDs anymore!

The only time I do is when I have an MP3 CD that I have burned. Sorry.

I have a cd in my truck that displays the text. On my way home I will find out which one it is, but I can verify that atleast one store bought cd does display text.

While checking for the one cd with text I found I had three that displayed the album name and song title.

Good Charlotte, Lost Prophets and Crossfade

Also, my player says "No Title" instead of "No Text."
