all of the 06 radios are the same too, it gives you the instructions how to do it in the radio manual you are supposed to get with your car.
im dont remember if it is defferent for the iPod and stock radios but here is what I found out a while back on another thread.
here is the original thread https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...946&highlight=
i was in my tC but the same steps worked for the xB that posted after trying it.

with the car off hold the mute button and turn the key to acc.
the line under the text will be blinking
hold the 1 preset button, when you hear a beep turn the key to off (keep your finger on the 1 preset button) - you have only 15 sec. to do this
the radio will stay on and the text on the screen will be editable
scroll through the characters buy using the 3 and 4 preset buttons
confirm a character buy pressing the 6 preset button
delete the previous character by pressing the 5 preset button
hold the 6 preset button untill it beeps to confirm the new welcome screen text
you only get 60 seconds to enter text, after the 60 seconds it wont let you edit any text but it will let you confirm the new texts so you can do it again and start where you left off.
The characters scroll like this:
A-Z, a-z, (symbols & a space)
I did this on the iPod HU but it shoould be basically the same for the other 06 HUs....
