    I have been researching this option as well. The Kenwood 594 series seems like the best mid priced option that I could find. You can get it with a Sirius XM transmitter. They are about $175-225. I didn't want touch screen or something really wild looking. I hope this helps

    2000 Toyota 4 Runner Limited ARB OME FULL EXPEDITION is a highly modified off road vehicle built up on the reliable and bulletproof 3rd generation Toyota 4Runner. I bought the truck in Florida and drove it North.The suspension and tire upgrades maintain the excellent original ride characteristics of the 4Runner while greatly extending the off-road capabilities of the already very capable 4Runner. The BFG KM tires are super smooth and get the job done in any terrain. They are probably the best off-road tire in the market. The ARB Awning is a must for any overland/expedition vehicle. It is super rugged and opens and closes easily. No rust anywhere. 3.4l 24v V6. New ARB Expedition Winch Bumper, Old Man Emu Suspension, New Smittybuilt 9500 lb Winch, Recent BF 285 70 17" BF Goodrich All Terrain TA Tires on ICON Vehicle Dynamics Wheels , Roof-Rack, ARB Awning, Driving Lights. New timing chain, AC module, Transfer Case, New Kenwood Blue Tooth Audio System. Tan Leather, Sunroof, Rear window opens (last year available)
    This unit by Kenwood solved a lots of issues. Got from Best Buy for $120.00. It does bluetooth from my phone where I mostly listen to siriusxm. Gives me music and news through the OEM speakers. Also this unit has am/fm radio, Spotify, cd etc. Easy to install. Also connects to the phone for calls. BTW I disconnected the autoupdown antenna and connected directly.
