A tip to anyone doing this in 2024 - If your experience is anything like mine and you have trouble removing the drivers-side clip for heat controls, you can leave it in place and just unclip the entire unit/seperate it from the radio shell, this will give you plenty of clearance to get those 10mm bolts out. Awesome product, definitely recommend it makes a huge difference in these cars.
What does it sound like ? Does it hiss ? When you put it at max volume does it feel like you want to put it up some more but can’t like it does with fm transmitters or does it sound like regular radio at max volume? Pls and thnx!! Hope to hear from you 🤞🏽🤞🏽😭
Bought it, no regrets. Easy installation, working as advertised. I am a bit picky when it comes to sound quality, and I give it 10/10 Customer service was great.
Hi, We are very happy to hear! If you have Facebook, you can submit the comments there also, it really helps us in a long run. Thank you again, and thank you for your purchase!
I have installed mine on 2006 Toyota Avalon it took me less than 2hr taking my time the unit works great I will change the cassette area into a storage Thank you
Your video helped me tremendously. I installed another brand Bluetooth adapter from Amazon (nothing against the GTA kit, it just wasn't available) and I'm very happy with the quality vs using tape or FM... so, thank you thank you thank you!!! The only update to share is that I suggest using a little cloth to protect the rest of the dash from scratches. This is because the back of the main audio face/dashboard section has metal on the back of it, so if you rest it or slide it etc while performing the other steps, it will leave marks. I found this out the hard way. Thanks again.
Why wouldn't you install the main unit in the compartment instead of under the shifter panel? This would allow you to troubleshoot any issues without taking a panel or two out. All wires looked long enough, you can drill a hole wide enough for all wires.
4 Year later and it's still working great. As a minimalist, this gives my old car all the modern tech I want. I use a Quad Lock phone holder suction cup on my drivers window to hold my phone and I've got Maps, Music, voice controls and couldn't be happier.
Why wouldn’t you first disconnect the battery? Are you not taking a big, uncalled for chance between shorting out the computer or setting a airbag off? Dangerous possibility of causing some major issues !
I agree. This guy is clueless...not to mention that his microphone placement may possibly interfere with the side curtain airbag deployment. Absolutely clueless.
On website says: ,,GTA Car Kit supports Toyota Avalon without navigation only" I have a 2006 Avalon Limited with navigation system, what will happen if I try to install it?
It says on the website that it’ll only work with radios without navigation but on the video you installed it on a car with navigation. I have the exact same jbl radio and nav screen in my car just curious if this would work since the cheaper one I got off Amazon did not
Can it connect to two phones via bluetooth? Wondering how it works if me and my partner pair depending on who is driving and what that experience is like. Like will it connect potentially to my phone in the house while she drives the car if I last connected? Cause in that case I would think the car would need to be out of range than to disconnect from my phone or I would have to turn off bluetooth in the house so she can connect before pulling out of the driveway.
It depends how the sat radio was installed and which port it has been wired through. We do have a Y-cable which will work in order to add our kit and keep the XM functioning, if it wired through the same port. Thank you.
I would've somehow secured the aux cable a little better with like a zip tie or something so nobody would ever have to take apart the middle console again but other then that, thanks for the video!
I just found a splitter to possibly make nav work? ill give you an update when its done but i had to find it on another site. The navigation and audio have seperate connectors so it might work?
@@atlredninja1 did you get the stereo audio version ? And I noticed if my phone is at full volume it distorts but at 3/4 it sounds crisp!!! Even at full volume on the stereo of the car just as long as the phone audio is 3/4
@@EveeBarletta666 I did get the stereo version. I tried Dolby on and off, even flipping the tape upside down....Still it was super quiet. You are right about the 3/4 volume. Anything more is distorted....it is the same for the bluetooth and the wired cassette... just the bluetooth cassette was super quiet. I even thought that maybe I needed a head cleaner for the cassette player, but when I switched back to wired the quality was better....so I just have a small BT transmitters connected to the wire.....doing some research on TH-cam after this, it seems the cassette player wires out has both positive and negative for left and right going to radio.....I bet I could splice an aux right into the harness ...
The factory radio powers the heating and ac and also the screen above it. You would have to relocate the factory radio and splice it into the touch screen. It's possible to do. There's a video for it on TH-cam.

Mohammed AlShethry do you use Bluetooth? Is so how is the sound quality over Bluetooth? Because I am also very picky of my sound quality.
Where you bought it??
Do steering wheel controls still work?
Wow I would’ve never thought that was possible with the factory radio. Thank you!
Just installed it and it works perfectly, so happy with this.
This was awesome! I had mine installed in less than 1 hour. Your instructions and product are great! Thank you for being awesome!

Awsome video sir😊😊😊 thak you very much
Will this work on the limited edition avalon with navigation?
Mine is a 2006 Avalon Limited too. Good question. I stopped using the satellite input anyway.
Same
Does it still work if you have navigation? I don’t need to have navigation if the only problem is it removes it then I don’t care

Excellent product. easy install. Thank you
@GTA Car Kits - Does this also work with the 2006 Avalon Limited, since there is Navigation installed in the car? If so is anything lost?
On website says: ,,GTA Car Kit supports Toyota Avalon without navigation only"
I have a 2006 Avalon Limited with navigation system, what will happen if I try to install it?
I miss something, I never saw where did you connect it to the radio
I just bought a FM modulator and my Bluetooth is crystal clear and I can answer calls and talk as well.
which one did you get. The ones I get have this constant hiss
wisely bob he didn’t answer you which means he’s a liar
@@wiselybob7176 Can you change the station that your transmitter is using? That can clear up any hiss.
Where are you guys located?
Doe it play music thru usb..?
It says on the website that it’ll only work with radios without navigation but on the video you installed it on a car with navigation. I have the exact same jbl radio and nav screen in my car just curious if this would work since the cheaper one I got off Amazon did not
im trying to figur that out. I have the Avalon'limited/jbl premium/nav
@@binyaminmarmorstein5546did you figure it out?
Exelent!! I just bought a 2006 Avalon xls. And I will try to do that. If I need some help to install can I contact you!!😊👍
Why i am watching this I don’t have avalon
i dont know even why am i watching this i dont even know how to drive
Lol. I just bought one but I dont Know if I'll replace the radio or not.

What is the microphone on the top left of the car for? Doesn’t the volume come out of the car speakers?
it's so the person on the other end can hear you!
If my car currently has a dealer installed satellite radio, will that be disabled because the carkit shares the port?
It depends how the sat radio was installed and which port it has been wired through. We do have a Y-cable which will work in order to add our kit and keep the XM functioning, if it wired through the same port. Thank you.

Will this work with a single disc radio? (without nav) 2005 Avalon XL
does this cancel the CD changer?
The CD changer still works the same way, once you install our kit, you get an extra mode added.
Where u brought this blutooth kit
Hi, what can I use instead of the red tool? Like a fork or something?
You could use a fork, but it might scratch the trim.
Can you trigger Siri by pressing a button on the steering wheel or dashboard?
What year did toyota add bluetooth streaming audio to avalon limited models?
Not before 2010. I am not sure if the 3rd gens ever had it.
I wish I could do this but it says for non nav only. Are there alternatives? Can you just sacrifice the maps and still pull the same plug?
I just found a splitter to possibly make nav work? ill give you an update when its done but i had to find it on another site. The navigation and audio have seperate connectors so it might work?

Красава!
II am REALLy disappointed that toyota did not include bluetooth the year this car was built for the price you dont get anything hightech!
What size socket do you use to remove those bolts? My set doesn't seem to fit.
10 MM metric. It's easy You can almost rip the dash apart with the tips of your fingers, just pull gently.
Wow
Doesn't work for the limited model
You tried it?
what about just the aux input?
😍😍
perfect heart
You never show where do you plug in to the radio
