It will work in so much as it will almost certainly power up and the speakers will be connected. The main power connectors and speaker connectors are usually common across Toyota units.

You'll need an adapter lead for the FM antenna. It doesn't have DAB, it's just "DAB ready" to connect the optional DAB adapter.

Unfortunately between the B9004 and the B9017, some of the connector pinout has changed. Thinks like the microphone pinout for the hands free phone has moved pins. So hand-free won't work.

You'll run into similar problems (not impossible to solve) with both the TNS510 and the touch and go.

The TNS510 was intended to be dealer fit and for example, the phone microphone is shown placed on the steering column cowl. Does the ebay unit come with all the accessories? Phone mic? There is also a ipod/usb harness if you want to use that function on it.

Likewise, the touch and go will work up to a point (power up and speakers connected), but to get it fully working it will need some harness modifications. Antenna adapter again and some other fiddling. The usb/ipod harness doesn't have to be connected, but again, you'll need it if you want those functions.

All three are going to be easier than an aftermarket unit, but perhaps not that much easier.

Having said that, I personally don't think it's too difficult. I've got a fully functional T&G plus (inc steering controls, usb, handsfree phone and voice command) that I installed in an Urban Cruiser. It really depends how much fiddling you want to do, how confident you are and how easy you find reading wiring diagrams.

Hi shame, I know this a long time later, but I have the same issue, trying to get a b9017 into a t180. I am happy to fiddle, but need a wiring diagram. I know it's a long shot, but where can I get a wiring diagram, or even adapter if available? 

 

Many thanks

I did do B9017->T180 many years ago for a friend.

A few signals needed swapping between connectors to get everything like mic/steering controls etc to work.

I'm used to backing wire crimps out of automotive connectors without damage, so that's the route that was taken.

It wasn't too tricky to work out, but being so long ago, I no longer have the info instantly to hand (or easily accessible in my head!).

The wiring diagrams can certainly be downloaded for a small fee from here:

...by now you may find them elsewhere for "free" on the web.

Cheers
