DonniPre 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2012 Hi, I got a Japan import 2005 BMW 320i with an aftermarket radio ECLIPSE AVN9904HD. Has anyone encountered setting this up to work in NZ (if this is even possible)? I have googled and cant find a user manual. I can't read Japanese so I'm stuck... Any suggestion is welcome.

Has anyone encountered setting this up to work in NZ (if this is even possible)? I have googled and cant find a user manual. I can't read Japanese so I'm stuck... Google revealed 14,600 results on AVN9904HD, around 90% of them in Japanese That pretty much confirms the radio is a Japanese market only radio, and thus quite likely that it is not a reprogrammable radio. Googling for the model number and PDF reveals some interesting results, like: The manufacturer is Fujistsu Ten, a long standing manufacturer of car radios This is interesting reading: http://www.fujitsu-ten.com/business/techni...al/pdf/24-4.pdf It revealled the following: It's a 2004 model, quite recent The previous years model was the AVN9903HD. The system diagram is interesting There are many references to Japan-only functions, like VICS, and FM de TITLE Good Luck!

Using google translate, I was even able to download 2 PDF user manuals (1 for navigation and 1 for audio), but again it's in Japanese. Unless I start learning Japanese or start befriending one, I will just have to play mp3's on it. Oh well, thanks for your reply. Cheers, Donni Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
