Car audio geeks please help!

Wife wanted a mini van, but I just couldnt do it.
Craigslisted "3rd row seating" and land cruisers popped up.
The search had begun!
Found a nice-ish '94 semi local and now using her as the family rig.
Among other minor projects, I am looking to replace the partially working factory radio.
Dont need anything too nice, I dont listen to the radio often.
Just want some noise once in a while, but would like the more modern options; DVD, GPS, back up camera, etc...
The Cruiser has the double space available. (4"?)
Couple of questions about the GPS:
-Some run off of an android phone?
-Or is it internal to the radio?
-Which is preferred?
-Do I need a special android phone, or any android?
-Monthly service?
Any brand better than another?
Anything else I should consider?
Looking to spend under $500 all in if possible.

FWIW, I LOVE this thing. Was looking for an old Toy to play with, but with a family, the trucks were out. 4Runners dont have the 3rd row, so Land Cruisers were the chosen.

Obligatory pics of the new ride:
