Looking to upgrade from Stock Audio Set

[804Hokie]

Right now I have the stock 6-speaker on the 2008 V6 4WD SR5 with the CD-player, but am looking to replace it with something that has SiriusXM, Bluetooth and GPS navigation. I've started my search with Crutchfield. What are some other sources, and what have others installed in their dashes?

Depending on your budget, the Pioneer AVIC-Z140BH can be found for around $650 right now since it's last years model. Has everything you're after. You'd just have to add the Sirius external tuner but I'm pretty sure you have to do that with most of them these days. SCC1 I believe is the tuner interface.

Sonic Electronics is a little cheaper than Crutchfield but they don't have the same level of customer service as Crutchfield.

I have purchased from both and will in the future.

All I gotta say is take advantage of the space and put the full 7in in there.

+1 for Sonic Electronix, great place to deal with.

And definitely do the double din. I'm a big pioneer fan, but I have a JVC DVD Navi in my 4Runner and love it

I have purchased from nearly all major online audio dealers, and woofersetc.com is by far the best ive dealt with.

what is your budget?

are you only looking to upgrade the head unit, or also the speakers?

what kind of sound quality are you interested in having?

At most, $900 on parts. But from what I've seen, can probably get everything I want for under $700. I've got two able mechanics in my family, so labor and technical assistance is no issue. I really only see the need to upgrade the head unit; the speakers sound pretty good and deep as they are (this after using Bose system for a decade, with sub-woofer in the MDX).

Hey! I'm interested in adding Bluetooth capability to my '08 T4R's stock stereo (JBL Sytem). Can I get some kind of adder or must I replce the head unit? If the latter, where can I find something that looks really good installed in the same cavity? I'm not interested in doing anything to the speakers.

Thanks.
