Default USA Spec Model PA12 TOY Now Available

USA Spec finally came out with their ipod interface for the Camry. I have one of these in my Honda Pilot and love it. Crutchfield carries it http://www.crutchfield.com/S-O6KRqmb...2&i=581PA12TOY

I installed one in my Honda Pilot. It integrates with the radio and allows you to use your steering wheel controls to control your ipod. The ipod will become the radio's CD changer. It looks like this one http://www.crutchfield.com/S-ZQQJFvt...Y&i=581PA11TOY or visit www.usaspec.com for more info.

Is the Avalon Nav system the same as the Camry? Crutchfield says...
Note: The PA12-TOY is not compatible with the Avalon navigation radio. Please use Crutchfield's "Outfit My Car" Link to confirm compatibility with your vehicle.

When I click on Outfit My Car, this device is not listed.
Just a thought... If this does work with the nav system, I bet the text will be diabled when driving because it uses the CD player interface. The CD text is disabled during driving in the curent nav system.

I just noticed the fine print near the top of crutchfield's page for this device...This item does not work with your system
My system is a Navigation w/factory radio (I also have a factory XM but that was not even considered on crutchfield's site)

I am not sure but according to USASpec, if you have a text button it will.
