Grey Import JDM Vehicle: Your Options for an English Instrument Cluster
12 March 2026
## The Problem
You have bought a Japanese domestic market (JDM) vehicle. The car drives perfectly, but the instrument cluster displays Japanese text. Maintenance alerts, menu options, and warning messages you cannot read.
## Option 1: Replace the Cluster
You can source an English-market cluster for some models. For others, no English-market equivalent exists. Cost varies widely.
## Option 2: EEPROM Conversion (Mail-In)
For supported models, we can reprogram the EEPROM inside your existing cluster. This is the most cost-effective option and preserves your odometer data. Turnaround is 3-5 business days.
## Which Models Are Supported?
Currently confirmed: Toyota Corolla Fielder Hybrid, Toyota Corolla Axio Hybrid. More models are under assessment. Check the Supported Vehicles page or contact us.
