So this is the final install pic of my Dual head unit( it is the 40 dollar one). I may upgrade again at some point. The stock unit does not operate...

This may be the greatest unintentional irony/pun ever on a message board.

Why did you leave your old headunit in?

LOL on the pun, I did not intend that at all, haha.

Anyways, the reason I left it in is the previous owner had a wooden block to mount a satellite radio reciever to and quite frankly it looked ugly. I also did not want a big hole in my dash and I did not feel like calling around for the DIN size pocket to fill the space. I saw that the OEM brackets would actually fit with the headunit and stock radio in place so that is what I did! It looks kinda factory and better than having a big hole in the dash...

Touche. However if you drop by a junkyard you can get the pocket that goes there (some even have a hinged door on them) for a $2-5. Seeing as camry's are terribly common you'll easily find one. Let me know if you need any help

I will consider that if you are not in a rush to sell, perhaps for my next head unit upgrade when I have some more money to spend on the setup. Same goes for the other person who offered

It's not the radio, it is the connectors to the back of the stock radio, they are missing...

The stock radio is not hooked up, I hooked up the Dual unit with the other connectors
