    Non JBL Non RDS for JBL with RDS?

    I know this post is 2 months old, but my 03 JBL HU has RDS. I would agree on wanting one that does MP3 and has an AUX though..

    Help installing stock sub enclosure

    Can you post a pic of the stock sub enclosure you bought? This website shows someone doing a fiberglass mod for the first time. It is pretty consistent with other sites I have seen. Starting Fiberglass sub box! - MP3Car.com You could use that cubby space to make a stealth enclosure. Unless...

    4th Gen - Interior Lights Out

    I just had to do this last spring. If you are going to replace 3 bulbs, you might as well replace them all. I believe there are 7 or 11..can't remember exactly. I do remember there are at least 3 different part #'s. I found them at a Toyota dealer in Bethlehem PA. They can ship to you, in...

    What is your alcoholic beverage of choice?

    I used to be a micro brew beer nut, but I'm getting old and the hops bothers my stomach. However, I'm OK with almost everything else aside for whiskey and scotch (sucks!!).. My standby Grand Mariner on the rocks (unless I have the coin for 100 year as it is simply delightful) Tequila - 1921...

    Huge favor from the New Jersey folk on here

    If Weifert can't, I can do it this coming Monday. I have off from work. I would do it earlier, but going to the in-laws this weekend and leaving Thursday. I thought about doing it tonight, but the pics wouldn't come out well. I'm only 30 minutes away..

    Help with Pioneer D-3 and 2006 4runner

    Reading some of the other Posts, one forum user mentioned a PAC Tato unit from Crutchfield. It is the module interface for aftermarket HU with the JBL system. I verified it and it is on sale for $37. I am doing a happy dance since I've been holding off on buying my HU until I have my amps..

    Optima Battery question?

    I just recently replaced mine. I had 120k on my 03. After doing some research on the batteries listed above, I bought a platinum Die Hard unit at Sears since it rated the best. Dummy me. I could have simply filled up the battery with some distilled water to bring it back to life. I didn't...

    2000 4Runner Limited radio backlight dimming

    I've only read of some buying replacement LCD screens due to this issue and painstakenly soldering them in. There is an outfit that rebuilds these HU's. Not too expensive, but generally more expensive then replacing with an aftermarket HU, if that is an option.

    help with factory radio/cd/tape player

    First try your fuses. The one that handles your illumination might be blown. If not, I would say the HU took a hit somehow. My wife's Mazda blew a relay and fried some wiring from a simple jump. Sometimes things just happen.

    Help with Pioneer D-3 and 2006 4runner

    You have a JBL amp that powers everything (located behind the plastic molding in the passenger rear cargo area to the left of the sub). The stock head unit just provides a signal via a digital link (as I recall reading). I am not aware of any modules to allow the adding of an aftermarket head...

    Anything about your 4R that just drives you crazy?????

    Not sure if it is in all 4R's, but it is a platform in the cargo area that acts like a shelf (raises off the cargo floor). The manual calls it a picnic table. Like other references, it also slopes downward allowing items to roll out when the liftgate is opened. It's nice to tuck away...

    Getting a new stereo and ...

    Lzyltng You would have an amp located under the plastic molding in the passenger rear cargo area. Crutchfield sells an item called a Pac Taco or something like that (found it in another post). You will need it to wire into the JBL amp. It's on sale for $37, but normally $75. Plus an...

    Anything about your 4R that just drives you crazy?????

    Eschimochaos Guess I've been watching toooo much Seinfeld re-runs lately. 11, 13 and 15 are dumb (wife rolled her eyes as well). No doubt you find the entire list dumb, but humor side (or lack of as you are so kind to point out), that is my contribution. I'm glad to be a new member to this...
