Runx GPS, alarm etc

Postby snwtoy » Sat Nov 22, 2008 10:54 pm

Hai guyz

Just wondering if it's possible to convert the factory 2-din gps/stereo in a runx to english?

Also, what's the lowdown on the factory alarm? I'm guessing it's not insurance approved?

Factory alarm? Are you referring to the factory immobilizer with the clutch? Or does yours have more to it?

*apparently* it has a built in factory alarm system. I take it maybe it's only central locking?

try lock it and then open a door manually, see if it sets an alarm off easy way to tell. i would say probably not able to convert into english without sending it away to get re coded to english or some shit, i havnt heard of it being done. toyota would probably just try sell you a hole new computer unit in english to change it
