    Is there any way that we can upgrade or load firmware for this to work? Thanks.

    The 2004/2005 can't, but I havn't seen any reports on the 06.

    I'm sure there's a way to do it (the Japanese models support it), but it is probably quite unlikely that you'd be able to get it done here.

    I would imagine it supports it, but you may need to change the MFD hidden settings to display in Japanese.

    If you were anywhere but the west coast, I would think you'd have trouble finding a dealer service department willing to support you.

    While pressing and holding â€INFO†switch, operate light
    control switch, OFF " TAIL " OFF " TAIL " OFF "
    TAIL " OFF.

    If you do it again, you get another set of screens. Make changes at your own risk.
