Has anyone of the '03 JBL system owners looked into get the '06 head units? It seems like it would match up physically but is the connector going to hookup....

Thanks guys,

Joe

Well I'll take a stab and say that the connector will fit. My reasoning is this:

I have a 2004 that came with the single disc JBL. I don't believe any changes were made from 2003 to 2004 in regards to the head units. I swapped a 2005 JBL 6 Disc unit into my 2004. I've seen on the boards that people have put 2006 JBL units into their 2005 model 4Runners with slight modification to the bezel or none at all.

Of course, like any internet related advice take it with a grain of salt

Where did you get your bezel for your HU swap? I have a 05 w/jbl single disk HU and now have a 06 jbl 6 disk HU I want to swap, but have been hung-up on the bezel issue.
Thanks.
 
Hey Scotty Mac,

Where did you get your HU from? Did you buy it from the Stealership or did you get it off the net?

Just wondering.

Thanks,

Joe

I got mine off Ebay from a car audio shop in Tampa that pulled it from a 06 4Runner. I may go in a different direction with my system and will put my unit up for sale. If you're interested PM me and I can give you details and answer any questions.
 
Hey guys,

Well I got a quote from partznet.com for a 06 6CD changer at $376 shipped to MA. I wanted to get an idea what they cost brand new. The tech I was dealing said that I needed an adapter harness but I do not think that is so. He might have thought that I was trying to put it on a non-JBL 4Runner.

Anyway, I am going to try looking around for one used. We will see. If I come across one and do the install, I willl post up results.

ScottyMac if you sell definitely let me know. The only thing is I don't use IM. Do you have an email that I can send you a message too? Oh, did you need an adapter harness for your install (as mentioned above)?

Thanks for help.

Joe,

Sent you a "pm" with my contact info. just click on the pm button at the bottom of this message and you should see the message. Took me a while to figure out how it works also.
