A little more feature rich HU for Toyota Fortuner - Team-BHP

DRC · 7th November 2009, 18:32

Toyota fortuner comes with a different music system and navigation unit in some countries (sorry don't remember the country). Doing a bit of google I found this link where such a HU was available.
TOYOTA FORTUNER NAVI TOYOTA DVD GPS FORTUNER NAVI : Buy Special Toyota Fortuner Navigation DVD System With HD Monitor- For TOYOTA Fortuner 2007-2009 - from IPmart.com

It might not sound better than the hi-fi systems like Alpine/pioneer etc, infact, Toyota music systems are generally dull, but I think it has following advantages
1. Looks completely homogeneous in the dash, does not look like a add on
2. steering control continue to work
3. add reverse camera feature still do not need additional screen
4. add multiple input
5. iPOD
6. Navigation

I am not sure if this is an OEM part for Toyota, but the spec seem very believable. Does anyone has experience in such mod.

I think this can do a bit to improve the plane jane interior of the fortuner, what say fello BHPians?

PS: I do not have any commercial interest in this.

This was fitted at the Toyota dealer so you might want to ask the dealer.

Does anyone know if there are vendors for such HU in India.
In an another thread a fellow BHPian got a similar HU for his corolla!
