Paul, good to hear the 4Runner is doing well. I put one of these in my RX8 and was generally happy with the end result.

It's not as slick as an OEM setup, but effective and pretty easy to install. Plus you get to keep the OEM look radio, which I prefer.
Aftermarket units are hit and miss, the reviews on Crutchfield are very helpful. Bluetooth and microphone performance in particular seem to vary greatly. Integrating with your steering wheel controls with an aftermarket head unit might be a challenge, I installed a nice navigation HU in a 2009 Chevy truck with Bose, integrating with the Bose amps and steering wheel controls took two different 3rd party conversion boxes. Doable, but not fun. Crutchfield customer service is top notch, if all else fails just give them a call to talk through your options.
