V36 English Buttons...

[KeyGT]

Hi All,

Firstly thanks for all the invaluable information that has been contributed on this forum!

Now as it has been asked 100 times before can the V36 Japanese characters be swapped out for English... Well I'm not about to claim that I have found the solution to this problem however I have recently been in contact with the gentleman who mad English button overlays for the V35 and offered my Navi optioned 370GT SP to allow for some fitments to be undertaken.

I would just like to state that I am in no way involved with or will gain any compensation for these products but thought it should share the partial fix with the community. Once finalised if ok by the administrators/ moderators may post an ebay link to the product, however should this be against forum etiquette please just post within this thread.

The final product is not yet in production but here is the product he has installed thus far.

Just get the buttons and surround from a USDM G37 I'm sure there would be a few floating around on eBay.

Unfortunately given the US G37 is LHD the buttons are on the wrong side ie inversed.

Nice, a lot better than the crappy sticker option.

I will send u a PM for more info.

Cheers, Paul

They are stickers aren't they? The pic looks a bit tacky to me. Are they just resting on top of the buttons and not actually installed?

Yes they are sticker overlays just waiting on the final product which i am told will be done in UV resistant plastic and are likely going to come with symbols for the voice and back buttons. Once I get the final ones sent and installed will post a properly taken macro shot to show as much detail as possible.

This may not be to everybody's taste but personally they serve their purpose and don't look tacky in the flesh. Each to their own.

Still look a lot better than this sticker kit being sold

Also I found this being sold through a local parts place and it wasn't very dear. I'm not well versed in how this all works, so not sure if the factory Fascia would pop off and then fit this?

[KeyGT]

It looks like that is a LHD Facia.

Go ahead and fit the LHD buttons.. You will waste $700 doing it. Yes they fit, yes they work, the button functions are 180 out . Been there.

The place where I found those crappy stickers from, has come up with some better ones.

They are $33 bucks

I'm not associated with this place, just thought I'd chuck it out there. I reckon I will go that option, seems the cheapest way to go, without looking too crappy.

. this is the original really crappy ones.
