Looking at this deck for my 06 DC and was curious if anyone had it and could post pics and feedback.

Believe it or not I just had it installed the day before yesterday replacing the 6 disc factory changer in the Tundra 07 DC. I'll try and figure out how to post pictures. It Looks great The Toyota dash kit the installer used is almost the same color as the interior. It is a black kit and the interior is a dark grey. It still looks like it came with the truck. The Radio itself has many options to customize for your liking. More than are advertised from the MFG website. I use a creative ZEN instead of an ipod (it had more options) You can use the USB port as a hard drive or USB flash drive but it does not display on the Zen. It does display all the artist Tag info on the Radio face however. The Aux input can Be increase through the stereo input boost option. Which makes the MP3 player LOUD without distortion. Is there an email address I can send photos to?

Thanks, and I sent you a PM with email. Anyone else out there with this deck in a 1-gen Tundra?

I installed the same unit in my '06 about 6 months ago...could not be happier! I've been using JVC head units for many years (had them in my '89 & '91 Supras), and have never experienced a single problem. If you want some info on where I bought the KW-XG700 and how much I paid for it, PM me. You're located fairly near me, so if you are planning on being in the Natomas area (near Arco Arena) soon, we can arrange for you to check mine out in person. Take a look at my signature to see the details on my entire sound system. Good luck!

Lambe67,

Thanks for the pic, it looks great and I am about ready to pull the trigger. What do you think so far? Do you still have the factory speakers, or did you upgrade? It is hard to tell from the pic, but are there spacers around the deck, or does it fill the factory opening completely by itself?

Im pretty sure with all double dins you have to use spacers around the deck. This one does i can tell in the pic. I installed a alpine douple din a couple months ago and here is the one i used. It worked pretty good.
