Sony Microphone Mount Supporting Documentation

We are proud to offer you a solution for mounting your Sony aftermarket microphone in your 2010-2019 4Runners factory microphone location.

This allows your new microphone to be neatly tucked away in the headliner console and maintains the level of voice clarity and function you expect.

Installation Steps

1. Remove Headliner Console.
   Depending on trim level this may vary slightly.– If you have a sunglasses compartment, flip open the compartment and remove the 2 screws. OR – If you have terrain setting knobs (i.e., TRD Pro, Off Road, etc.), pull down/off the control panel which will reveal the 2 screws. – Front of headliner console is typically held in with pressure clips and can be removed by pulling straight down.
2. Remove Headliner Console Wiring Harness. Unplug harness connector.
3. Remove the factory microphone Locate microphone port and remove the factory microphone.
4. Remove Mounting Ball On Sony Microphone. The small ball can be removed easily by cutting with a pair of side cutters or a utility knife.
5. Install Microphone To Mount. Push the rounded end of the microphone thru upper support of the mount. The rounded end of microphone should be very close to in line with the bottom of the 2 legs on mount. Align the spot where you cut off the ball to be in-line with one of the upper supports. This will make sure the audio openings on the side of the microphone are not obstructed.
6. Install Sony Microphone Mount. Install mount into headliner console. Insert mount (legs & rounded end of microphone facing down) until the clip locks into place.
7. Route Microphone Wire. Start by routing microphone wire from headliner console area through headliner towards rearview mirror. At this point, you can re-install the headliner console. Be sure to pull excess slack toward the rearview mirror while reinstalling headliner console. Continue routing the wire along the top of the windshield toward the driver side A pillar. Tuck the wire behind the A pillar cover and route down the A pillar toward the driver’s floorboard. Run the wire under the dash area and finish by routing the 3.5mm jack to the back of your new Sony Bundle. Connect the 3.5mm jack into the red mic port on the rear of the Sony radio chassis.
8. Test Functionality. Test functionality after making all required connections.

2014+: If you selected “Maintain Sirius/XM” at checkout, you’ll receive the STO2.

Maestro STO2: This will already be attached to your new Sirius/XM tuner. The tuner is located underneath the rear chassis of the Sony radio.

Utilize the factory satellite antenna cable that was plugged in to the back of your factory radio to plug into the provided adapter.

You will not use the antenna from the SXV300 (which is located in your parts bag) since the STO2 will maintain your factory satellite antenna.

Inside the dash you may find several square plugs of varying colors (i.e. white, gray or black).

• White – Factory Navigation (No longer needed)
• Gray or Black – Factory Sirius XM Antenna
  • Connect your XM tuner adapter to either the gray or black plug.
