Japanese Car Stereo Problems

Dear All

 

I wonder if you could help me with a problem I have on a Japanese imported Pajero, 2000 x reg DiD lwb which I only took delivery of on Friday.

 

The problem is with the radio, basically it is a top of the range unit with a separate LCD screen, below it in a separate unit is the controls for the unit, (all buttons in Japanese) press one of the buttons on the top right of the unit and the front comes down to reveal a tape unit, under the dash is a separate mini disk player and under the passenger front seat is a cd/sat nay system... as you can appreciate I am reluctant to get rid of this set-up as it also controls the air conditioning and the compass and temp gauge as well as the TV and rear reversing camera, My problem is that apart from the radio buttons being in Japanese most of what is seen on the LCD screen is in Japanese as well.

 

I do not have a manual for the Radio and don't even know what make it is, but what I need is a name of someone that maybe can convert this system to English. 

 

I was wondering if any of you have had similar problems and how you have overcome it or even if you could throw some light as to a maker of this radio.

 

I would really be grateful for any help or advice you could give me.

 

Thank you very much in advance for your time.

 

Kind regards
