DTBK 0 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Hey all.I've just bought a 2007 Corolla Verso T180.I'd like to get the Sat Nav system for the dash (yes, I know I can have a Tom Tom or phone based system, but I want a system in the dash).I assume I need to stick with an official Toyota one in order to have the best fit etc.Naturally though, I expect that going via Toyota would be stupidly expensive.I can see that some units are available via eBay etc, but how can I check what model system would be compatible? Would any of the TNS510, TNS600 or TNS700 work?Is this something that I could fit myself or is something best left to a professional to do? I've seen the installation instructions on Toyota-tech.eu but it seems I need to know what generation my vehicle is... Mine would appear to be either an FMC Gen 2 or an MMC Gen 2 but how can I tell for sure?I'm sorry for so many questions and hope one of you is able to help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SAM LOVERS HER TOYOTAS 99 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 HIA friend of mine recently installed a genuine Satnav unit into her Toyota corolla...was a simple straight forward fit using all the existing wiring coming from the car that goes into the stock unit...however you may need a fascia to make it work otherwise it certainly wont look genuine...as for model numbers you'll have to contact Toyota for that or Parks-King on this forum may help you with that...but as far as i know all those model numbers you've listed so far apply to all the new Toyota vehicles which i think start from 08 or 09 upwards...Yours should start with a B...but then i can't say for certain...sorry...but Goodluck matey!

Steven252 5 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I ended up picking a kenwood full sat nav system for mine for a lot less than a toyota one. The problem with the toyota systems is, if you want to update it, you will have to buy the update discs from toyota at £120 per time IIRC! I got the updates for my kenwood for £30... Plus the sound quality is MUCH better than the oem toyota units could ever provide Quote Link to post Share on other sites
