Well I pulled the trigger. I should have the panel assembly in around 2 weeks. I have been doing internet commerce for a little over 20yrs and for some reason I forgot about the currency conversion. My bill came out to be $265 US for this. Not bad at all. I hope it makes it here in the same shape and I hope it works. LOL

Good price! I'll be interested in how the Prado version works out for you
 
UPDATE: I received an AC panel from England. It was out of a 05 Prado, it cost me $125.20 GBP off of Ebay and shipped to the states. The part number is 177600-3010.
My 06 GX should take the the later panel. However, I plugged it in and it operated everything. It did have an odd function to it though. The temp. controls were funky. The left controlled the right and the right controlled the left, but they worked. I think my blend flap servo on the right side is not doing so well. It started to grind. I ordered all of them because they're all the same age, so others will fail at some point.
I'm waiting on 2 second panel to arrive. It's out of an 09 Prado coming from Australia. In theory, this one should work perfectly in my GX. I will update when it shows up.
I hope this post helped.
 
Great thread. I plan ,to install the Joying Android HU since I've used them on several other vehicles and like the quality.

I have a 2005 Mark Levinston Nav unit. I wanted to remove the factory CD changer that's in the glove box, and the factory GPS module under the seat since those won't be used/needed with the new HU. Just wanted to make sure removing both of those won't create any cascading issues when they're no longer plugged in?

Removing them will not create any issues. I removed both when I ran an Android headunit for a while, and there were no ill effects. With the OEM display removed, the OEM navigation and CD changer serve no function.
 
I have and 03 Prado with NAV and Pio amp and also wanted to try this but the only thing that's keeping me from actually starting is my bezel. Look at the picture and you'll see what I'm talking about. Mine is woodgrain and if I buy the HVAC controls to swap I will have to get black bezels and won't match with the rest of the interior.

New owner of a 2008 here. I'm looking for the mythical 88650-60773 if anyone's got any leads or advise on how to locate one.
 
I currently have several climate controls for GX 2002-2009, 88650-60770, ...771, ...772, ...773. the price for 772 and 773 is higher, there are a couple of them in stock.
2. There are also side brackets.
3. I can solder the harness plug and play, it takes time and you will have to wait a few days.
4. I can solder harnesses for steering wheel buttons for radios with 3.5mm mini jack like in Pioneer, Sony radios.
5. There are OEM frames for 2DIN radios in black, if necessary, I can paint for an additional fee, in the color of GX470.

I also service the climate control buttons so that when the button is lightly pressed, there is good contact, most often the temperature control buttons and fan speed do not work well over time.
your box is full, interested in a 771 unit for my 12/05 production date conv to non nav and double din
 
Email him, he replies eventually. Once you contact him the process was straightforward and took a few months as I recall. Harness works great, the conversion is worth every single penny. Good luck.

I make harnesses in my spare time. There is not much free time right now because of my main job, I will solder the harnesses as soon as I have more time.
Thanks, Eldar
