FJ60 OEM Radio with bluetooth adapter? (1 Viewer)

[Ian Crawford]

I did it and posted in the "What did you do to your 60 this weekend" thread in the last 6 months.

Costs about $50. You just need a bluetooth dongle and FM Modulator. My radio maintains full AM/FM functionality and stock look. Everything is behind the dash.

I just have two front door speakers. I did upgrade those to modern speakers but stock size, note they have to be shallow or the window will hit them.

Sounds is OK. I can hear it with the windows down on the highway.

I doubt the factory unit is strong enough to run 4 speakers, especially larger ones but anxious to hear how it works/sounds!

The only thing mine adds is the switch. Turn it off and you are now bypassing the FM Modulator.

Thank you, and just for clarification; what is the difference between “on” or “off”?

On the control box there is a small switch on it to toggle between two FM frequency choices. When the unit is turned on with the toggle switch on, tune to the chosen FM frequency you selected on the control box during install and you are good to go.
Off = the radio is in 100% back in control and that FM frequency can be used to pickup local stations again.
