Considering purchasing a used AVIC-Z2 on Craigslist tomorrow.

Have done some research and saw faceplate motor issues.

1. Is there anthing I should look for in particular?

2, I saw on line I can power 12V + Acc and ground, what else is necessary?

3. If I brought cheap speakers with RCA plugs?

4. Any problem with checking two outputs at a time and not connecting to the others?

5. Recent value w/ BT, +IPOD, missing GPS antenna? I saw a broken one sold on ebay for $250 today

6. Is there a list on this site of stolen S/N so I can check, I do not want to benefit from someone's loss.

Anxious to join the AVIC family

BTW it is for a four door Tacaoma double cab

Thanks in advance.

Power up with ground, ACC, and 12v+.

Open screen to confirm it works properly. Then insert DVD and confirm it will play.

Check that you get 3 wiring harnesses, mic, and gps antenna.

Speakers don't play off the RCA.

BT is worth almost $100. iPod is about $40. An aftmarket gps antenna will cost about $20.

If all is good, it's worth $400 - $600. IMO.

Good luck!

Thank you
