For Japanese-market imports
Turn your Japanese head unit into an English one
Bought an imported Alphard / Vellfire / Elgrand and everything on the screen is in Japanese? Here's exactly how we fix that — and what to expect.
Drag to compare
✅ Becomes English
- Apple CarPlay / Android Auto — fully English
- Navigation (Apple / Google Maps, in English)
- Music / media / calls / messages
- Main menus and settings (varies by vehicle)
⚠️ Honest list: stays Japanese
- Some factory dashboard warning text
- Japanese labels on physical buttons
- On some vehicles the factory Japanese sat-nav stays — you just won't need it (CarPlay navigation replaces it)
We don't claim "the whole car becomes English". Each vehicle page has an exact "what changes / what stays" table for that model.
Why this needs a vehicle-specific approach
Most Japanese-market head units have no English option in their settings — the language is locked at the factory. Plugging in a generic CarPlay box is the easy half. Doing it properly — keeping your reversing camera, steering wheel controls and factory audio working, and being upfront about what stays Japanese — takes a kit matched to your exact vehicle and generation. That's what we focus on, for a small number of vans we know deeply.
Pick your exact vehicle, and if the kit doesn't fit, you get a full refund — return shipping on us.
