This video is flawed, in a 2002 yaris, lower plastic facia can't be removed because it is screwed from the inside. You have to unscrew 2 screws behind the ashtray and 2 next to the climate control system. After that you can remove both original and aftermarket radios/CD players together with the plastic fascia (if you want, you can now remove the fascia itself, as the screws are easily accesible).

Ok. Just a quick comment Guys! In general the video is not that bad... But for the future if you are advising someone how to remove something from his or her car you should be more precise... - 1-st of all the upper panel which contains the factory radio is ATTACHED! to the dashboard by two screws located behind the two knobs - the fan direction flow knob (first on the left hand side) and hot - cold regulator knob (first one from the right hand side). There may be also additional screw located on the left hand side of the dash on the top of left oval storage on the passenger side (the one without any covers). Without removing those screws you won't be able to lift the panel up. And if you force it you will probably brake it!!! SO WELL DONE for showing it and telling about it on your video!!! :-( :-( :-( - 2-nd thing the lower panel is also hold by 4! SCREWS! Two on the top of original factory made radio (only visible when the upper panel is removed) and another two or sometimes 1 behind the existing ashtray (you have to remove the ashtray to be able to unscrew them). Fail to do so may result in additional panel/console damages! All the screws and attachments are made to prevent the dashboard from unwanted noise like cracking or squeaking when driving. So ATTACHING THEM BACK ONLY WITHOUT THE SCREWS (LIKE SHOWED ON YOUR VIDEO)! Will result that the whole dash will make a lot of unwanted noises. And also some of the buttons may not work properly. So please correct the mistakes in your video and be more precise in the future ones! You have to remember that the material you are posting on the web is not for a mechanic (he already knows how to do it or has the factory manual/training), but for a "normal" guy who is just willing to prove himself and save some money on a simple job like that. Thank You

Dear video recording chap. There are 4.8 million screws we had to take out when doing a friends Yaris that weren't mentioned. I feel this should be included in your walkthrough for future references. Good day

[@louigi6001]

Damm it: you forgot to mention that there are 2 retention screws under the knobs and that there are also 2 retention screws on the radio head .... I broke stuff because you forgot to mention

[@TechTuners]

Thanks Andy, good feedback like yours let's us know when we're heading in the right direction! Any video requests at all?

[@dariankoltzer3646]

the question is how to put a new autoradio cauz no one want to use the old one from toyota

[@toontunesmgmt]

excatly

[@matenorth]

I placed a 1 din stereo in the storage space area because i didn't have a cutout fascia but it doesn't fit properly there and there is no way to secure it so its suspended there like yours. Lets hope it doesn't fall when i get into bumps. Is there a way to secure it?

[@trysam]

*you are fantastic ... showing all details and camera quality is good but for future reference you forgot to mention about taken off screws you must have done it before and screws left out i think you can edit the video apart from that its amazing video good job Thanks*

[@ricardoamaral4848]

Techtunner can you answer one question? I want to put back the factory radio from my 2000 yaris, I will buy o used one from another car, when I install it do I have to put any pin code? Or just need to plug in ?

[@Jamal_Tyrone]

I gave up on doing this years ago as it's such a massive ball-ache just getting the original out, it was a piece of piss on my 2001 ford fiesta by comparison.

[@Limited712]

Hey TechTuners i hope you answer me ! i buyed and installed a autoradio into my yaris p1 and the third white plug have no place in the radio. Also i have the problem, that i only have sound on the left side. I am not sure if its the third plug which controls the right side of sound or it was broken before i installed it. i didnt had a radio before ^^

[@m1schko]

Why don't you screw lower headunit and/or at least upper facia under the dials? It pops out really easy, so I think it's not safe to drive with no screws there.

[@Apekoppie]

Very helpfull for me .thank you

[@duelmasterblaze4106]

I've fit my stereo in, the cd, usb, aux and Bluetooth work. I'm just wondering what about the actual radio channels by themselves? How do you get them to work?

[@vytasstys6986]

top facia has two more screw , as well the lower facia and stereo frame is whell . Do not do as shown in this clip - you can broken your car facias and other !!!

[@TechTuners]

Ah it must have been done before and those screws left out!

[@Bialy_1]

It looks that who ever was doing instalation of that CD was below 10 years old or got technical skills of someone like that...

[@ahmedtanvir8510]

what's the third plugs for? if I put a new cd stereo do I need that 3rd plug in as I couldn't find where I cud put, I just using harness cable

[@sayhimali6384]

big massive mistake following this video, cut my fingers in different places got them trapped doing the above, nearly broke the cage with all the force used, bent much of the fitting which had to be straightened out later, there are screws everywhere any screws you see unscrew first !!

[@TechTuners]

Sorry to hear that it didn't help and that you cut your fingers and got them trapped! :O Be careful guys!

[@TheWardy1993]

hi would this be the same for a yaris with a cassette player ? it has the tray but we want to put a cd player in

[@captainhazza]

Great video, made me realise that I could easily install a new stereo into the tray myself. I've got a CD player I'd like to fit into my 2000 Yaris, and I've bought the PC2-17-4 wiring loom to fit it to the system. My problem, however, is that my CD player has a 16 pin connection (as yours does), My understanding was that the wiring loom needs to go from the stereo to the car directly. Do I need to buy another connector to join the two together (such as the PC3-433)? Thanks for your help!

[@therealsistercrow]

Just bought a 2001 Yaris with an *omg* standard tape deck. Great video - will be referencing back to it very soon! Much appreciated.

[@mijan1995]

How do you add aux wire? HELP!

[@TobiasLA]

Would like to put in a Android auto touchscreen, but WHERE to place it. Want to change the whole area, some buttons should be place down under to have space for a big screen there, is there any kit to change it like that?

[@memedaddyz]

thanks man! I am trying to fins some sound system for my first Yaris 2001 :D can you suggest something with bass booster too? :D

[@chriscerra4647]

TechTuners I have a 2001 Yaris, and I'm pretty keen to use my ipod or phone to play music, I noticed you've used a phono lead, but also noticed its plugged into your aftermarket system, can you remember if the stock system had phono-in or not? Only I don't fancy taking my dash apart only to be disappointed... be great if you could let me know :) Thanks

[@seanbudd5791]

hi I have a cassette player unit as standard below the cd player, can i change out the cassette player for a DAB radio, or failing that how can i add a DAB aerial to the existing setup please

[@user-sz9nv4zh1t]

Hey i would like to ask if it is possible to fit a 2 din radio in there in order to have backup canera

[@JQUICK21]

My toyota echo is very similar. I pulled all the dash parts apart, then the screws holding stereo in, but the plastic housing is still attached to the head unit and I can't see any way to get it off. No screws anywhere and I don't know what is holding the unit inside the plastic housing. HELP

[@brianharriss4366]

Good walkthrough, pleased to say I didn't break anything! New unit works a dream:-):-)

[@memedaddyz]

[@swiertopper7483]

You didn’t show to unscrew 2 hidden screws for the under-panel . Mr easy boy

[@TechTuners]

Hi yes, in the description it says: *PLEASE BE AWARE THAT YOU MAY HAVE MORE SCREWS TO REMOVE THAN I DID IN THIS VIDEO!!!! BE CAREFUL AND DO NOT HURT YOURSELF WHILE ATTEMPTING THIS. IF YOU ARE UNSURE PLEASE PAY A PROFESSIONAL TO CARRY OUT THE WORK.

[@swiertopper7483]

Sorry man but are here just for the hard hidden screws you didn’t mention . how easy you do it is not true and fake

[@olegk.8997]

[@dima95minciuna99]

[@flowlw6902]

Dose it have a ISO CONNECTOR?

[@biggezza59]

cool

[@wolfskii]

Do you know what size the headunits/stereo has to be?

[@m12345678910mo]

Can you add an aux cable from the back of the standard cd stereo or do you have to put a new stereo in with an aux fitting?

[@TechTuners]

The standard radio does not support aux in so you will need to buy a new head unit with an aux input

[@stevenmorrish1946]

Anybody know what bulbs go where the heating dials are as need to change mine. Cheers

[@damienregan163]

[@saidul02]

anyway to put a USB player on this car ?

[@TechTuners]

I'm not sure what you mean? You can buy head units that have USB slots?

[@saidul02]

+TechTuners yes kind of. hardly anyone uses cd these days. if I could hook a memory stick with the set that would be awesome. those cd player doesn't have usb port its look like.

[@TechTuners]

No but you can buy head units with USB slots.

[@sarfrazparastish]
