I am looking for Aftermarket replacement radio recommendations for my daughter’s RAV4.
I have purchased 2004 RAV4 for her as a first car (she will be 16 very soon :high5:) and she wants to have a more modern radio system :)with Bluetooth.
Nothing extreme and on the budget… any recommendations are appreciated!

The important things to know would be does the RAV have steering wheel controls for the audio system now? Also do you know if it has the JBL system or just the base audio? Id recommend any of the newer Pioneer stuff they are cheap and the Bluetooth works great. A single din (smaller radio size) would save you a few bucks and make the install a little easier where as a double din (larger radio size) would give you more options to go with a touchscreen and add a backup camera down the line but cost would go up as well. Are you going to do the install yourself?
 
As a dad who raised 3 teenage driving daughters get a basic with just bluetooth.
I put one like this in my youngest kids 98 Rav4
Pioneer MVH-X390BT Vehicle Digital Media Receiver with Pioneer ARC app compatibility,Built-in Bluetooth and USB Direct Control for iPod/iPhone and Certain Android Phones, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KKHTP7Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_gn9hBbZCKWQEG

Sure back up cameras are nice but in my opinion new drivers need to learn how to actually be aware of their surrounding not depend on a limited crutch like a back up camera.

They need the basics so they aren't distracted
 
No back-up camera please. Tired of waiting for idiots my same young ass age backing out of parking spaces like grannies in a Buick Park Avenue because they're too lazy to turn their heads and physically look at what is behind them.
