2013 FRS head unit

[thebitz1]

Anyone put a Scion FRS head unit into a 4th gen runner? (2003 limited here)

I have read other posts and I believe it is possible. trying to confirm if steering controls remain (without the use of the metra wiring) .

Also wonder if an new bezel is needed. I have a single din aftermarket from previous owner and I don't know if I need a new bezel.

also, wondering if this unit is worth $100 shipped.

I think you need the metra harness to get the steering controls to work. Buckles has a good writeup on another thread: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/160083-scion-frs-radio.html

You don't need a metra harness for the controls to work. You do need a factory toyota harness though. I have all the parts and part #s in my thread. as I posted before, I had that same unit in my car before upgrading to the screen. It uses the same wire harness as the screen does.
