The dealer did adjust the latch to tighten it up a bit but it eventually loosened up again but by that time I traded it in for an FJ Cruiser, the 4Runner was too nice a car to watch my dirt roads chew it up.
I'm selling my AIC-100i, (acquired on a group buy last year) with $40 custom T4R ipod holder and Toyota wireless rear seat audio headphones: $200 less shipping.
Works great and never had issues. I traded in my T4R for an FJ cruiser which is why I'm selling it.

iPod interface for Nav 4 Sale
Folks, I have a VAIS AIC-100i unit for sale. This was installed in my 04 T4R w/ Nav and worked perfectly. I just traded my T4R for an FJ and was able to amputate the vais unit b4 the trade.
I'm selling the AIC-100i, and custom T4R ipod holder that works great...
I might have one for sale in a couple weeks. I'm trading in or selling my 4Runner when my FJ cruiser comes in May 15th. If I trade it in I'll remove the unit and sell it for ~$200 and include the custum bracket that holds the iPod on the dash...
2004 T4R LTD V8 w/ NAV: $29k
Gotta let my baby go, just built a new house and went way over budget, downsizing car loan:
This 04 T4R is nearly mint, has the NAV and Xreas, V8, stickered at ~$44k and has 62K clean HWY miles and runs like a top. Also includes the avic ipod nav interface iPod...
I'm leaving the aic in the glove box for easy access to the aux and for firmware updates. I'm mounting the ipod on the dash via this mount
I ruled out center column based on the need to drill a hole in it and I ruled out behind HU, the aix is too big and cables too short and no accessibility...
My Bad, Text Works!
I feel really dumb after testing another 60GB Photo iPod today: Text worked! :bash:
I must have ignored the "Title Off" button the first time around.
However, names of Disks, (play lists) don't seem to appear except within the title song display.
But this does provide...
Good Deal Slogin and Grunner, congrats
Let me ask you this; what version iPod's are you testing with? I used the iPod photo 60 GB for my tests and did switch between MD and CD changer modes and no text.
I'm actually meeting Eugene sometime next week, turns out he's only 15 miles from my work...
I did reset the unit for CD-Text and no go. Eugene just notified me that the firmware for the Video iPod is ready, I'll be sending it to him next week to upgrade.
To be clear: All my tests for CD-Text were done using my older iPod photo 60GB and not the iPod Video. Hoping I get text on the HU...
Slowgin, I tested with the Photo iPod 60GB and no text. The Video iPod did not even work except in simple mode as expected per Eugene's communications
Grunner, I have a 2004 LTD with NAV, my HU shows # 17010 in the bottom right corner. CD text is supported and works with CDs that contain it...
Installed!
My VAIS aic-100i is installed and working with a few caveats but overall I'm very happy with the sound and control of the ipod.
I just traded my ipod photo for a ipod video which is only supported by the aic-100i in simple mode but Eugene is working on a firmware update to include...
Got mine! Shipped yesterday, got it today. But I'm only about 40 miles from VAIS.
Now to figure out where in dash, or glove box, or center column where to put this baby. Thinking with the aux input it would be nice to have it easily accessible.
One thing that could be a prob is the ipod...
