You make taking out the a/c + clock piece look easy. Took me a cut thumb, numb fingers, slight trim damage, swearing, and 2 bottles of water to finally pull that sucker off but my god it was all worth it for the bluetooth+aux system. Thankfully that was the only part of difficulty. Now I'll just have to figure out what to do about that bit of trim.
I just bought a used 2006 Solara Conv, original radio was removed, and replaced by a Sony/CD/blue tooth radio. I would like to buy and install a stock Solara GPS/SAT radio. Do you know if that is possible?
Hey does this kit work if you have a 2005 Toyota Solara with a slightly different looking radio. My radio does not have TAPE PLAYER, nor does it have the SAT button. It basically is a AM and FM radio, plus CD Player. Will this kit still install the same and also function?
Just hooked mine up but I can only change tracks through my ipod and not on the stereo or wheel. I press those to go to the next song and the same song continues to play and it only resets the song length time for whatever reason. I tried to change disk modes as well but it just stays on disk 4 track 8. I pressed every button on the stereo. It will not change modes or will not go to the next song. Can anyone identify this problem?

you don't need to take the radio out, once you have the lower front console out you can reach up in behind the radio and plug it in, thats what I did.
How does this kit work on the other stock Toyota head unit that comes with the 2004 Solara that only has a single disc player and no tape deck?

Can I change the colors of the middle by going through this way?
where is the amp located in model solara?
I can't replace anything because the dash is so cracked it would just fall apart. Great video though, thank you.
Anyone know how to fix the pocket where the volt and aux is(2007 model)? Mine broke and won't close properly and have to manually open it.
Can you use a Samsung Android the same way as the IPhone threw the stock radio?
Yes you can use Android phone through AUX, or if you get the Bluetooth kit, you can use Android through bluetooth connection. Thank you
Does it work if you have the navigation system on the solara 2006?
the cd unit is e7001
@@tonyliuke it worked?
Hi,
Please email us a picture of your radio.
whaat ! we have to take apart that much?!?
I thought you would take in the radio out so that you could put in the GPS and The back-up camera and a new radio I would rather do that
Can you get one that charges other phones besides the iphone? I have a galaxy or does it not matter?
Do you need a empty CD player with no songs in it?
My 2004 radio works except for the CD player 😒😒😒 is there an easier way to just fix the CD player?
please email our support, through our website, and we will be able to tell if the kit will work with your radio.
