Suggest a cheap bluetooth stereo?

I need to upgrade mine too so any updated suggestions would be great. My 4Runner is a 1998 model.

I put a KW 2DIN in mine a few month ago and wondered why I didn't upgrade sooner. Because of the placement being so low, I opted for no video screen, only $150. Got it at crutch field, the price wasn't that far off from sonic electronic, and better customer service.
 
With black Friday coming up, I would think you could find something easily for under $100. I got my unit on a sale/clearance table. Single DIN, CD, BT, MIC, the works and also well set up for a subwoofer if I plan to add. I picked up up for about $110.

What is your price range, do you want a touch screen dvd player, or are you ok w/ a plain double DIN or single DIN HU?

My suggestion to you is to visit sonicelectronix.com or crutchfield.com and look at the various stereos they sell. Me personally, my suggestion is Sonic Electronix because they tend to be cheaper than Crutchfield.

Also see my previous post above yours and click on the two links. They are both non touch screen double DIN HUs w/ bluetooth capabilities. If you type in those model numbers on Amazon, they tend to be cheaper also. I have the same unit but 2 previous models before this and it's non bluetooth. Gotta say that I love the unit but wish I would have spent the extra money on the bluetooth capability.

If you want touch screen capability, my suggestion is the Pioneer AVH-X3800BHS which has bluetooth and HD radio capability along w/ a Sirius/XM connection. Love this radio. I just had it recently installed in my wife's Sequoia and she is loving it. Plus it has it's own dedicated backup camera plug in. If you don't care for HD radio but still want bluetooth capability, try the model below it, which is the AVH-X2800BS. Everything is the same minus the HD radio, plus it's several dollars cheaper. These HUs touchscreen are 6.2 inches btw.


Thanks for the info. I am not so much limited in price as I am making sure I get what I need and that it fits well. I am not so much looking to have major sound just good features. I mostly hunt out of it and weekend wheel around with this. Its not my daily driver. Those you suggested look pretty close to what I want feature wise.

I have something like this, as my head unit has AUX in but no native Bluetooth.

Plugged straight into AUX with one of these:
