Well for many people who like to -Do it yourself- jobs, I have actually bought an American International In-dash Install Kit from Best Buy-s Online site, and I figured it would be nice for someone to have some instructions or those who have fear in doing it and messing something up.[hr][img]http://home.comcast.net/~...ioinstallinstructions.jpg[/img][hr]hopefully this is helpful.Note, you use the toyota wire harness that is squared from 87+If anything message me back and I-ll try to help out with other information... I will also be posting a site with up to date photos with projects that I will be doing with my car so I-ll post them here once they are completed. [hr]here are some links to information about the installation parts....Dash Kits:[hr]American International - In-Dash Installation Kit for 2004 Toyota Scion xA/xB/tC - TOYK969[hr]Wire Harness:[hr]Toyota 87 and up

As some people know about the switching modes of the Factory Pioneer Head unit it has the option of xA, xB, and tC. to my preference, I would recommend the xB cause it providers a clearer sound then the other 2 presets in the radio...if you are new and don-t know what I am talking about goto your car and look at the SPP Function you hold that button in for 5 seconds and bam.... the options to choose from (Use volume to change the settings)Word!

i used the metra kit 99-8209. It looks pretty good too.Is this the same kit on Bestbuy online that is for the xA and xB, or is there another that I am not seeing?

This kit is the same installation kit for the Scion xA, and the xB, its from Amernican internation, I think it works pretty good as long as you don-t have a head unit which has buttons that stick out far But actually Next post that I have will be picture - by - picture install with this kit, not enought time in a weekend to have it done....

It-s taking you a week to install? I think I-ll keep using the metra kits. They match the dash better, and take about 30 minutes to do a full install.
