Jon from Portland, OR, USA –
“I’ve used cassette and fm solutions and the sound quality is just horrible. My car stereo did not have an AUX-in.
The shipping was 3 or 4 days. Great.
The video (2001 – 2005 rav4 video) did not quite match my car (2001 Rav4) but it was still helpful. I thought installation was going to be harder than it actually was. My car had 4 allen screws holding the panel around the stereo in place (no clips) so it was quite easy.
I use iPhone 4 & 3GS. I ziptied the gta cables & adapter behind the stereo and ran the ipod/iphone cable into the heating duct (there was a small opening in the duct, covered with a strip of insulation that I pushed it through) and then out the center vent above the stereo.
I really like Seamless integration with the car stereo, perfect audio quality, plug and play! Your system sounds 4x better, is sturdier, looks better, will last longer, and was only slightly more than the $90 *POS* fm transmitter i last tried. Perhaps you need more advertising – I did not know there was anything like your kits for many years or I would have bought one sooner.”

” I just wanted to let you know the IPod kit arrived and I have already proceeded with the installation myself.
The YouTube Installation Video ypou have posted online enabled me to finish in less than 20 minutes…and this was my first time pulling out a radio.
Everything went perfect and the GTA Kit is exactly like Toyota OEM quality I was looking for. Thank you very much. I will certainly recommend your company to my friends/family.
Regards”
