Geo Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Brakes look like 4/2 set bud. Radio looks like it could be an Extra as it has the Toyota name/logo at the top Now go out and wash it, and get some pics up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 It's a toyota H/unit, but not a factory option for the supra, I imagine it's been lifted from another car. You can see where the dash has been butchered to make it fit the apeture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straightsix Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Get a band expander for the radio. The TV might just want a decent aerial (it probably needs a TV aerial as well as a radio aerial) I might have a band expander knocking around somewhere but you should be able to get one off ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTRickeh Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 I've just found a band expander upstairs that I took off the Supra ages ago. Says 94-108 MHz which is what most stations here are I think. You can have it if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slicknick Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 The Supra i brought also had this head unit but it fitted fine and without any cutting so not sure why they have done that to your dash!, Ive just removed it as it just wasn't very compatible with modern day standards and too much was in Japanese. The Sat Nav only works with the Toyota satnav DVD's that would have originally come with it, the head unit reads from them for the maps, voices etc and i don't think they ever made versions for UK/Europe. Hope that helps abit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
