    That's the one I have now. I'll have to find one that works with the back up camera. I may have to go with that Pioneer for $700 with the fold out screen.

    If you need to make an aftermarket deck work with a Toyota factory reverse camera, all you need is a cheap voltage regulator.

    Toyota cameras run on 6V, aftermarket decks supply 12V.

    Lol... I've already tried. It's blocking me as it's trying to eject a CD, and I can't load one. It's still stuck in a loop, even after resetting the "brain" by pulling the fuse. Maybe I'll just forgo the backup camera. It's not my daily driver anyway. But I wanted it as a selling point. But there's no way I can get in there and dig out the CD. But thanks anyway...

    It's not very much work to get the deck out of the dash where you can look at it on a workbench. That'd be step one.
