    Thanks in advance for helping out an ignoramus who is totally new to car audio.

    I have a 2005 Toyota Highlander (without navigation) and want a unit that:
    - integrates well with iPhone4 Bluetooth for all contacts, speed dial, call handling, etc.
    - is easy to use from a music navigation standpoint (find it, play it)
    - sounds good with MP3 files via USB, MP3 player or SD Card
    - has options for native sreering wheel control (not sure I'll pay for this, though)
    - does not have to have CD or DVD capability
    - installs cleanly in the 2005 Highlander (would be installed by a Pro)
    - has good FM reception

    Thanks again.

    well pioneer, keenwood, rockford fosgat are the only i have ever delt with and they are very good and im sure they all make one compatible with the features you have listed above. and the FM radio will only be as good as your antenna will alow.

    Your question shouldn't be what should I buy, but rather what brands should I stay away from since everyone has their favorites. There is pure junk out there and I don't think anyone would say "I love my pyramid" or "My Duel rocks!"

    There's two brands right there to not consider! ;)
