While I avoided noting it because it led to the digression you're about to wade through, I'm ecstatic to announce that yes, that cool satnav was also available for my beloved childhood Corolla! What do you mean "what childhood Corolla?"? The one from the first blue link in the post, silly! The one you clicked when you first read it because you know I lovingly weave them into my posts just for you (btw thank you so much for that! c:). What was I saying? Ah, right, the satnav! You can see the multi-function screen that would display directions right atop the dashboard!
And, like in the Yaris, the CD player or tape deck (or as shown here both if you're a real baller) were installed below in the center console DIN. Oh right, we're being accessible here - DIN is the standard head unit slot size's name, which derives from the German standard institution that codified it, like ISO files and film sensitivity came from the international organization DIN is the German branch of.
And that Corolla sure liked DINs - so much so that, as was the case for ours, you could swap the factory screen pod for a third DIN and forego factory Toyota infotainment in favor of whatever stereo you wanted, and those lower slots would just be filled by a storage tray.
Tray which, of course, someone handy could swap for yet more car Hi-Fi! But, since the Japanese law says "it's either Japan-only or has a cooler Japan-only spec", they made themselves a double DIN dash pod...
...and since the cupholders below the storage tray sure look like they're installed in a half-DIN slot, that makes for a maximum total of 4.5 DINs, which while I'm open to be proven wrong I think is an all time world record for production passenger cars.
To communicate the sheer power of this amount of space, let's list car stereo components until we fill it:
This, as you can see by the watermark, is no ordinary tape deck, but one of the handful of car stereos ever made that could play Digital Compact Cassettes, Philips' cosmically flopped attempt to update its most successful invention (at least if you count the CD a team effort with Sony).
The nice thing about that stereo is the DCC mechanism was designed to be able to play normal tapes too, meaning it can also function as an ordinary tape deck, unlike, uhh...
...that weird time Sony decided what people really wanted in a car was the ability to play their Video8 camcorder tapes. Well, to be fair this was more to put on movies for van or bus passengers, and putting videotape technology at the service of car entertainment was not a new idea...
...as indeed, there were a few stereos out there that played Digital Audio Tapes, Sony's attempt to make a compact cassette successor through VCR technology, which labels, frightened by bit-perfect copies, cockblocked out of mass adoption cornering it into the professional space. Professional space in which however it was a hit, so while you may not have heard of DAT, you've heard DAT, e.g. the master for Whitney's cover of Dolly Parton's I Will Always Love You was a DAT!
[someone right now:]
The nice thing about DAT stereos though is that, with how new and high-tech it was when it came out, the few consumer DAT products ever made were range-toppers aimed at Hi-Fi tech pioneers with cash to blow on cutting the edge, so all these stereos are hefty, sturdy, well-built, top-quality, no expense-spared masterpieces.
Whereas nowadays most car stereos are more like this...
...cheap garbage whose only quality is that, however poorly, it does a lot of things. Hell, this unit alone has a DAB radio, Bluetooth, an AUX in, an SD card slot, a USB port, and a disc slot that promises to play CDs, DVDs, and -and I know you're not sold so far but here comes the dealmaker- Video CDs.
Which, combined with all the other formats from the head units above, forms a combined 14 different sources. Hell, if you want to round that up to 15 (let's pretend 15 is any more round a number) you can just move to the trunk...
...where you can mount a changer for MiniDiscs, the portable, digital, re-recordable Sony format -yeah Sony made a lot of formats huh-most notable for everyone falsely believing it flopped (truly the Tumblr of formats) and for NOT BEING A FUCKING MINI CD PEOPLE WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. But then again, why mount that changer in the trunk when the thing is so adorably tiny you could effortlessly slot it under the seat or even in the glovebox!
"Ah, this is why I like you, man. You start talking about the Mk1 Yaris and you manage to fly the fuck away into completely unpredictable territories" glad you appreciate it, but what car do you think that changer is in? ;)
Links in blue are posts of mine explaining the words in question - if you liked this post, you might like those!
the Toyota Yaris is my babygirl... (I have a 2002 one which I named Tilly)
can I learn some more about my car maybe?
Call yourself Dr. Pepper because you can!
I have made a helpful diagram to illustrate.
Very happy someone asked about the car me dad was gonna buy, so I get to show its funky optical-illusion digidash that, through some magic I must say still eludes me, is made to look a lot further than it is so your eyes don't have to refocus to glance at it.
And I know what you're thinking - "Wow, digidashes are so cool, if only there was a website that collected them all" and my dear where do you think I got this image from? ;) But there's another cool thing about this image, speaking of it - what's with the coordinates in the lower display? Well it turns out that's why that button at the bottom right says "NAVI" above it - for the low low price of an absolute fucking fortune that it seems no one was willing to pay you could get your Yaris fitted with a little underseat satellite navigation unit that fed off map CDs (because people who say things were better back in the day just don't remember the details that well) and gave you directions in return!
"But wait", I hope and pray you're thinking so I get to do the reveal, "where's the screen then?" Well it's right there! What more screen do you need to be given a turn and a distance?
And that's not even all the cool tech that the Yaris ever got! In 2004, they made a special version called "Yaris Blue", available in blue, blue and blue, which offered steering wheel controls and what color was that tooth again ah right Bluetooth!
Hm. I wonder what website this image came from. Guess we'll never know. Anyway, imagine life in 2004 with a decked out Yaris: electric windows, a sunroof, Bluetooth and satnav, a wicked digidash... what else did you need? Hell, what else do you need today? Maybe a bit of space, but that was taken care of by the Yaris Verso that was introduced alongside it a couple years later! It married Toyota reliability and quality with a surprisingly spacious mini-MPV body style, with the only problem of being phantasmagorically ugly.
yeah. I don't think even in Japan you couldn't find one that looks decent.
Hm. I'm gonna need to sample the public on this one, but the fact that they call it Fun Cargo there may risk swaying me over.
They also did other fun things with the Mk1 Yaris in Japan, like calling it Vitz, giving it a turbo version because of COURSE, and making it one of Gran Turismo's most famous surprise win cars. You know how Gran Turismo has made many people, including some of y'all, fall in love with some cars? Yeah. I suspect it's done the opposite here. It is worth noting, here, that Gran Turismo random car prizes were not influenced by what cars you already had. Do you see where I am going with this.

#'oh my jesus christ how much thought did you put into how many formats you can put into that car' MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE#this is a thought experiment that is YEARS in the making#this post is not even the full extent of it#I know how to get it to 20 it's just beyond the scope of this post#you can ask if you're curious but BE PREPARED#does it at all show that I really like car stereos and think they are a criminally overlooked component in cars#toyota yaris#toyota corolla e110#car stereos

Toyota Corolla (1993-Present)
This post continues to show how the Corolla changed from being a standard compact car in 1993 to being one of the most best-selling cars in the world by 2020.
1993-1997 Toyota Corolla (E100)
The E100 generation was a much larger, heavier, and more aerodynamic car, than the E90 Corolla generation. It had also moved into the class of compact cars, taking the place of the Corona and the Camry.
1998-2002 Toyota Corolla (E110)
The E110 generation shared the bodystyle (and even doors on most variants) as the previous generation of Corolla. For this generation, the Base, XLi, GLi, and SE-G trim levels were introduced as well.
2003-2008 Toyota Corolla (E120/130)
The E120/E130 Generation came with a longer wheelbase. This generation of the Corolla in particular, was designed as a global car to suit the market needs of different countries, which helped it become one of the most popular generation of Corollas ever sold. This generation also sparked the production of the Toyota Matrix hatchback, which sold in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
2009-2013 Toyota Corolla (E140/E150)
This generation of Corolla was based on the E120 generation, which is seen by the similar designed bodystyle and doors. However, the E140s which were sold in the U.S. (and most of Asia) used the wider version of the E140 platform, while South Africa and other countries were sold the E150 edition. This generation of Corolla shared similar styling components to both the Camry and the Yaris, and overall improved in driving conditions compared to the previous generation. In the 2011 model, not only was the Corolla given a slight facelight (with new front and rear designs as well as changes to the interior). The XLE and XRS trims were discontinued in the U.S.
2014-2019 Toyota Corolla (E170/E180)
For this generation, the Corolla had an increase in the length of its wheelbase. The front and rear design for the North American E170 was based on the Toyota Furia concept car. This generation was offered in the L, LE, S, and introduced the LE Eco as well. The Corolla had also become the world's best-selling car by this point. By the 2015 model year, a Special Edition Corolla, based on the S trim was introduced, and in the 2017 model year, not only was the S trim replaced with an SE trim, the XSE was introduced as well the Corolla recieving new exterior paint options.
2020-Present Toyota Corolla (E210)
The current generation of the Corolla to date includes a hatchback and station wagon variations in addition to the sedan. In the 2022 model year, the Corolla introduced a GR Corolla based on the hatchback. The L (or base model) was dropped for this generation in the U.S. and the Corolla remains the best-selling sedan in the world with 1.6% of the market.
