    I installed a PLZ 902W headunit in my '09 back in January of 2024. So far, I LOVE it. Look at my older posts for the updated PLZ unit. Cost, including the headunit, bezel and plug & play harnesseS is <$200.

    Abandon the OEM head unit. I'm still in therapy.

    Lots of good aftermarket head units out there. Toyotas was pretty poor honestly
