Thanks landriver!
I was examining the car today for a way for the power wire to go frm the engine to the inside of the car. Are there any suggestions or is it required for me to drill a hole thru the firewall myself?

You're welcome wwlccp.
I just tapped into the existing power so don't have experience going through the firewall, but took a look under the dash and there's an existing harness that goes through the firewall above the parking brake pedal and emerges in the engine compartment in a convenient area and on the same side as the battery, so I would try routing the wires through this existing hole, or drill a hole right next to it if for some reason you encounter problems routing the wires through it. Good luck!

Thanks!
One last thing.. I have the 01 HL Limited with the JBL package. Does the stock headunit have the anit-theft built onto it? If there is, then would I have the code to unlck it after I disconnect the battery or do i have to go back to the dealership for them to enter it in.

Nav system modification by spencer327

Nav system disables all programming functions while in motion. While, I see Toyotas purpose
(sic) safety, I travel alot with my wife and navigator and would like to be able to defeat this so called safety feature,(since I have already punched a disclaimer button to start the system). Toyota does'nt even give me the courtesy
of an answer. Pulling over on the road is the only way to do it(this is safer?)
BTW the system works great, just dont try to change it on the fly.
Anybody

I have a 2005 HL with tow prep package. Purchased an aftermarket trailer brake controller which came with Toyota harness to connect directly to vehicle. Has anyone installed one of these and where do you find the place to plug in the factory wiring harness under the dash? Does the trailer brake wire come out of the factory harness somewhere in the back of the vehicle?

There aren't any anti-theft features associated with the head unit; I've disconnected the battery a couple of times and the head unit worked just fine afterwards. Disconnect the battery, make the new connections, double-check the connections, if you have one use a meter to make sure +12 and GND aren't shorted together, and reconnect the battery while crossing your fingers. Good luck!

Has anyone had an aftermarket overhead DVD/Video installed on a Highlander with a sunroof? I'm in the process of buying a Highlander with a sunroof but the place where I had the overhead video screen installed on my minivan said the sunroof might make it impossible to have it installed.
Thanks....

Can anyone recommend a good online place to shop for parts and accessories. A couple years ago I bought from toyotaguys.com but they no longer exist. Appreciate any advice.

Highlander accessories online anywhere? by sde

There is an excellent site to purchase Honda accessories online: www.handaccessories.com . They not only list all of the accessories, but also have PDFs with installation instructions so that neophytes like me can figure out if we can do the installation ourselves.
 
Does anyone know if there is some equivalent online place for Toyota accessories? We're about to buy an '05 Highlander.
