Anyone know the difference between the premium JBL system offered and the '03 Camry LE V-6 and the standard system -- excluding the cd changer option?? Power?? Sound?? Speakers?? Appearance??

Hello,
 
     Does anyone know of an after market CD Changer (six disc) that will work with my 03 Camry navigation head unit. I do not want to use the FM modulation type or pay for a dealer's model, normally they are aftermaket any way with the Toyota name on them. Does any one know of such an item?
Thanks

I have a 03 Camry SE V6. I got a shop to install a 6 disc CD Changer and the controller that came with it (not FM modulator type). It's a Kenwood, and it comes with a MiniDisc player behind the faceplate also. If MiniDisc player is not what you want, there are other controllers you can choose that comes with either cassette deck or MP3 or CD players as well.
 
I think most aftermarkets can be mounted into the car, under one condition. A mounting gear is needed. Because the factory audio unit is huge compared to aftermarkets, you need a mounting gear to hold the faceplate in place. The aftermarket shops will tell you the specific mounting gear you need for particular controllers/faceplate.
 
I am not sure, however, if you can keep the factory audio unit as a controller to control aftermarket CD Changers. But as you said, the Toyota so-called factory systems are actually aftermarkets with their name on it. So you might want to ask the shops (not Toyota because they probably want you to buy the factory Changer from them!) if you can do it that way.
 
Good luck in finding the right system!

04 STEREO REPLACEMENT (MP3) by gotsol

Hello,
 
Does anyone have any information or success story on replacing a 2004 Solara stereo? I want to get a regular DIN MP3 stereo in there in a bad way. FM Modulators are too much of a pain.
 
Solara really missed the boat on the enormous stereo panel, lack of xm, and lack of auxiliary inputs.
 
I have a white 2004 SE 4cyl stick without a roof. This is a very impressive car for the money.
 
Thank you,

It's very possible, and easy to do, but can be expensive dependning on which system you have. If you have the JBL system, plan on spending for a new radio, all new speakers. The reason for this is because of the stupid JBL amp that they use. Remove the amp and your car will sound like junk if you go thru the existing radio.
If you have the nav unit, you can still do some cool stuff, but shoot me over an email and I'll give you more information.

Hi, wondering what other cool stuff your talking about. If you go to the Toyota Tundra User sight, they have a hack that allows putting a backup camera video input into the Camry Nav system - cool and geeky, but I am a geek after all.

Sounds like you know your Camry's. Can you tell me how to remove the JBL radio deck from the dash on 2002-2004 Camry? Thanks for the help. Gil
