Thanks for your interest. PM me off-thread and we can get the details worked out. Be sure to include your shipping address (which should be your verified paypal address) so I can calculate shipping. I'll let you know the total, you can pay via paypal and I'll ship.

I sold my T4R a ways back and just found some old parts. Thought maybe someone here could use them. I have 4 wiring pigtails that are used to connect a more modern entertainment unit to the stock 4th gen wiring. Sticker says "Wiring harness kit". IIRC they're plug-n-play for a scion unit (?)...
