I will do that and will let you know the outcome. the outside buttons are also in Japanese but that doesn't bother me since they all work, it's the software that bothers me and even the voice navigation.... i mean the lady in the GPS speaks to you in Japanese and it is annoying.

It is a Matsushita Electric etc and I found out that now this company is Panasonic. I have the serial number, model no and every detail, but when I searched through google, it didn't find even a manual, let alone a complete translation. i think it's all in vain what I'm doing.

Sounds like it might be a Japanese only head unit. Maybe you can sell it on ebay, to someone in Japan, to make some cash towards buying one with the correct localization.
