Yea, its good to know that aftermarket stuff says JBL and DENSO with the model number and Toyota on it. Next time take a look at the link before you ASSume.

To the OP, as the auction states, this is for HYBRID Camry's (dont really know if there is a difference). The radio is probably from a car that got into an accident and the junk yard or whomever took whatever was still working or in good shape and is selling it.

I would sell my OEM nav and get aftermarket. But than again, I paid all that money for it, I'll be losing money.

i believe the hybrid and xle are the same. only difference is the hybrid has the info for the consumption on it. should work eather way. just probably need antenna and such.

edit: maybe not antenna but i would research a bit more to see if u need anything else. i have a feeling that u do. specially if ur non jbl.

I have the JBL system. I also found this one, but not sure if i want to spend this much though i may have to...

Pawel062 · 05-18-2009, 06:12 PM

both are the same. the first one is cheep enough where u can get it n try it.

edit: after a quick search, this has been covered already and all instructions are provided. do a search for original navigation and limit it to gen 5 & 6 section. u should find the right thread quickly. read and ull know if u should install or not...

That's what the SEARCH function is for. Why should someone else do the work for you?

Proliphik · 05-18-2009, 06:40 PM

Because obviously they already did...

Pawel062 · 05-18-2009, 09:10 PM

no i looked bc if there was no thread then i could try to best provide my input bc i have navi from the factore and i wanted to install navi in my 07 without navi. when i saw there was the info out there already then i told u where to look so you could learn to use the search function. don't be lazy. it takes a few seconds to find it yourself. next thing ur going to tell me is that i should go wash ur underwear because i already know where theres a laundromat.

Hey Proliphik,
I know how you feel with these dumb asses who think everyone will search the same string as them or find the answer in the mess of threads... Just wanted you to know your not alone. They should be on an encyclopedia and not a forum shi....

please tell me its extremely difficult and hard to figure out that u should limit search to gen 5 and 6 section and should look for original navigation.

Just answer the question or stfu imho.

***Punks_Not_Dead5*** · 05-18-2009, 09:49 PM

Wow.....these days threads are going down hill fast...why doesn't even one just chill..

OP- do a search, the info is there if you look hard enough. Pawel just showed you what to search for.

Scjrod - Relax and stop the name calling. Consider this a warning, and yes i know others do it, and i have warned them as well.

You guys are considered newbies (see your post count) and you will not earn any respect from the people that have been around along time if you keep acting like a child.

I'll keep this thread open, unless you guys start taking it off topic again then i'll close it.
