Nav swap help please!!!!!

[thedivineguy]

I have searched beyond belief. Someone please help me! Over the weekend we picked up a 2005 4runner with NAV and backup camera. Also has JBL. No bluetooth. I have a pioneer X-930 from our old car. I am wanting to swap it in. I pulled the navigation unit from the 4runner. I couldn't believe how many plugs there were! Can someone tell me besides the obvious, What they are all for? I don't have the overhead monitor.
What harness would I need? Can I retain use of the factory backup camera?

You need to search in the electronic subforum. Anyway, yes can retain the factory camera, but I doubt it will be plug and play. You more than likely have to splice into some wires (no big deal). As far as plugging in the existing wires to the Pioneer unit, you can always call Crutchfield and they will (sell?) help you get the correct harness so it's plug and play for ya.

Anyway, I found this link, it (might) contain what you need;

Good luck!

But here's my problem. I have a factory navigation model. It says jbl on the nav. In metras catalog I don't need the module. I'm extremely confused! Do or don't I?

I'm willing to bet you DO need it. The JBL amp is a strange animal. Everywhere I've seen, if you want to go aftermarket, you need some sort of special wire harness in order to KEEP the stock amp.

EDIT: what module? From what I remember, to make it all happen, you need the aforementioned wire harness from Metra AND a "module" to retain the function of your steering wheel controls.
