  • The radio in most Toyota models is basic and old. This radio's buttons stopped turning vol up and down, aux plug stopped working. Here is how I removed an analog factory radio and installed a digital touch screen radio for a 2008 Toyota Highlander. The whole process took about 60 min. Did not need any fancy tools. I think the results look amazing. Got the system from eBay for $150 and was shipped from Cali.
    Update 8/2022
    The shop I got this radio from no longer exists on eBay. I found a similar unit on Amazon link below

    I know this has been awhile and you no longer have the vehicle but does this new unit work with the controls on the steering wheel? Also does this have the back up cam? Thank you so much, you make it look so easy.

      The radio functioned well with no issues as of 6 months ago, unfortunately the Highlander engine failed after 300K miles and had to sell it for scrap

      @@Peteromoni so if I am looking for better sound maybe it is not the way to go? The radio just offers other features? As far as sound quality, would you recommend maybe a pioneer, Kenwood,Sony with a dash adapter? Thanks for your response.

    Hi, can you tell me what radio and harness that you used for this 2008 Toyota Highlander? I have bought a radio, but cannot find a harness to fit my vehicle… A 2008 Toyota highlander sport base.
    Thanks, Steve

    • @Peteromoni
      @Peteromoni  Рік тому

      the harness I use in the installation came with the radio. If the radio you purchased doesn’t have a harness or it doesn’t fit, then they may have sold you a radio that is not compatible with your model Highlander

      The on/off and search/seek function is on the screen, the knob is used for volume
