GTA Car Kid will convert your iPod into a huge CD changer. You can put your ipod on the center console, or any phone as AUX input into the center console compartment. Audio quality is much better that wired FM modulator, and you have steering control on playlist.

I plan to tuck the GTA module away, behind the bottom draw. So basically I need to rip out the whole center console units.

Tools needed:

GTA Car kit + wiring harness
10 mm socket + extensions
Any flat bar or putty knife
Roto Zip saw.

Step 1: Remove the Side Panels

Slip a flat bar or putty knife under the panel & gently pry it out. Disconnect all plugs from the back & put them away so they wont get scratched.

Most auto wiring plugs have some locking tabs that you need to press down & wiggle ...

Step 2: Remove Speaker Grill

For the speaker grill, pry from front to back & remove.

Step 3: Remove the NAV Radio

Us the 10 mm socket + extension, remove the 4 bolts for the NAV radio.

Step 4: Install GTA Wire Harness

Gently flip your radio upside down & remove the CD controller plug (2nd from right)
Install GTA wire harness splitter to existing jack, then GTA ipod cable to it. Finally the existing CD controller.

Step 5: Remove Center A/C Controller Module

To make more room, put the van into neutral, turn it off & unscrew the shift knob.
Remove the 4 bolts for the A/C controller module, and the 2 electrical plugs from the back.

Put this module away also to minimize damages.

Step 6: Remove the Shifter Console

Remove the bolt on upper right, then gently pry around the edges until all is loose.
Unplug the 2 cig lighters & heat control jacks.

Step 7: Cut Slot for IPod AUX

For other AUX inputs, I wanted a clean look so you can plug in & close the door, soooo:

Using my handy RotoZip saw, I slotted a hole big enough for the GTA headphone AUX cable.
(size varies, depending on what non-Apple device you want to plug in)

Step 8: Cut Slot for IPod Controler Cable

Now that my saw is out, might as well cut one for iPod .... (I plan to place my iPod on the center cup holder)
This one is fairly simple: Toyota center console has a release handle, so I remove it off-site & cut my iPod slot

Finally, connect the GTA AUX wire, the iPod controller from radio, and the iPod connector wire.

Turn on radio, select CD input & test.
