If the factory navigation system in your car only displays Japanese, we can replace the head unit with an Android system that works in your own language. Atozukeya is a car navigation and audio installation shop in Suginami, Tokyo. We have carried out this work for residents in Japan from Taiwan, Korea, Australia, the Philippines, Vietnam and Nepal. Checking whether a unit fits your car is free, and you can do it on LINE in your own language.

Most cars sold in Japan ship with a factory navigation system that has no language setting. You can open every menu and there is simply no option to switch it. In practice that means:
We fit an Android head unit made for your specific model, so it sits in the dashboard like the original. Once it is in:
One thing we want to be honest about: Apple CarPlay cannot play video. CarPlay is limited to maps, music, phone and messages. If you want YouTube or a streaming subscription in the car, you need an Android head unit — that is exactly what we install.
These are cars we have actually worked on. The product pages linked below are in Japanese, but you can send us the link on LINE and we will explain it in English.

“A phenomenal service that gives my 10-year-old car a new lease on life! I finally got my beloved MINI equipped with the Android navigation system I’d always dreamed of. From confirming my car model, getting a quote, purchasing, and inspecting the goods upon arrival, to the final installation, their service was incredibly professional and meticulous throughout. When the car was handed over, the owner spent a lot of time providing very detailed operating instructions, and their after-sales service on LINE is excellent. Even more surprising is the dramatic improvement in the sound quality; now every drive is a pleasure.”
“I had Android installed in my Mini crossover. Having Android in my car has breathed new life into my driving experience. The service was very good and everyone is very polite and helpful. I am even able to contact them if I run into any issues with using the new system. They gave an explanation of the new system that was very clear. I would definitely recommend.”
Our Google rating is 4.8 from 69 reviews (as of 24 August 2026).
The total depends on the unit your car takes, the labour involved and any extras. As one published example, the 14.5-inch unit for the Jeep Wrangler JL is 330,000 yen including tax, built to order. Quotes and fitment checks are free, so please ask before assuming. Every unit carries our own six-month warranty from the date of delivery.
Yes. Message us on LINE and we will reply using translation. We have taken customers from Taiwan, Vietnam and Nepal all the way through to installation this way. Because it is written text, it also works well if you are not comfortable on the phone.
The display language can be changed in the Android settings. Which languages are available depends on the unit, so tell us the language you need before we order and we will check it for you.
Usually yes. We have fitted units to a 2015 Lexus IS, a 2018 Mercedes V-Class and a MINI that had been driven for ten years. For the Land Cruiser 100, units cover model years from 1999. The right unit depends on model and year, so send us those details first.
It depends on the unit, the labour and any extras. Send us your model, year and what you would like, and we will send a full quote. Quotes and fitment checks are free.
Yes. Front and rear dashcams, a reversing camera and in-car WiFi can all be fitted during the same visit. We did exactly that for the MINI shown above.
Yes, with an Android head unit. Apple CarPlay cannot do this — it is limited to maps, music, phone and messages. Our units run Android, so you install video and music apps directly. Please follow Japanese road traffic law regarding watching video while driving.
Many customers tell us it does. The head unit handles the audio processing, so the way the same speakers sound can change noticeably. We also tune the audio settings on request.
We explain everything when we hand the car back, and you can keep asking on LINE afterwards. The questions that come up after a week of real use are the important ones, so please do ask.
We do our best. Customers have travelled to us from the Kansai region. We can also introduce a partner workshop closer to you. Ask us on LINE.
