I have a 2009 Camry (radio has a blue glowing face). My dad has a 2011 Camry (radio has a black face and a USB connector for iPod support, song titles show on the black face.
As far as I can tell, the radio in the 2011 is A51888 (by Panasonic).
My question is, can this radio fit in the 2009 Camry? It appears to be the same shape and size. Will the connectors in the 2009 just fit this new radio?
Also, what parts will I need to set up the USB connector?
Can't confirm the connectors, but should be the same. I would swap out the entire cubby storage thingy where the USB is; its much easier. Also your dad is going to lose the bluetooth function on the steering wheel. Should be an easy swap.
Im 99% sure the connectors hasnt changed as I am using an aftermarket wiring harness for my JVC and it said 07-11.
Your best bet is to go by a dealer and get the part numbers. There was a site somewhere if I recall that has all the parts number online but I forgot.
You can just try to swap your Dad's before going out and buying one to make sure all works. Like I said it literally takes like 10 minutes to swap them out.
I've tried to do the same as you at some point and upgrading to that unit but found it much less expensive to upgrade to an aftermarket single din JVC and have HD radio as well.
