English sat nav conversion.


Recommended Posts

I've searched, but many old posts...

If you buy an import with full Japanese display, what is the easiest/best/affordable way to get it all working in English with Aus maps etc.

And look factory original?

Is there a diy, self-install kit available?

Cheers

Dave

I got mine done over 8 years ago in Adelaide and it cost over $1000.

To get a real cost it's best to ring some local Car audio places or Jap import car yards near you. Some will be able to do some wont.

At the time i got mine done it was cheaper to do an Android OS. But i wanted OG with English.

I use my phone for audio/music so using it for Nav as well. I also like the traffic/hazard/speed camera updates of Waze. So, I spent my effort on a good phone mount. It also keeps the car computer stuff on a seperate screen to my nav. So I had the mid screen computer converted to english. The nav is useless and in Japanese, and most of the led screen between the tach & spedo is in japanese.

It was cheap quick and easy (done over internet in NZ, and they send you a CD). The nav on my phone and the car screen showing car stuff works for me personally. I can also have ODBII displayed on my phone. But that is my Nav screen.

I like the two screens
