    Looks like you'll need to remove the cd player and confirm the connection unless anyone else can confirm it?

    W53824, W53900, W53901, W53902, W53905, W58810, W58812, W58814, W58816, W58818, W58824 & W58826

    16408, 16810, 17809, 18201, 18301,18302, 18403, 18404, 18406, 35407, 35802, 38408, 55838, 56816, 57412, 57414, 58402, 58405, 58406, 58408, 58801, 58804, 58806, 58807, 58808, 58812, A 56811, A 56817, A 56818, W 58300, W58802, WH8406, A 56811, A 56817, A 56818, TF0410, TF4300, TF4301, TM 4000, TM 4410 WH8403, WH8405, WH8406, W53804 (Y-cable must be used) W5380, B900/B9005

    I've not idea what the radio code is in the Prius. Might have to go grab the manual out of the globe box and see if it has anything in there.

    Yeah, with Spotify. I believe that slightly different kit is needed to connect iPhones vs iPod to HU in other cars (as I had this when upgrading the HU stereo on a Hyundai many years ago). Possibly because an iPhone has a network signal / connection so it causes different 'somethings' to happen... (and herewith my knowledge evaporates!! Ahaha)
