You can just google for a method to remove the stereo, I'm sure it isn't hard at all. Once you get the radio out, it's easy to install a band expander. I would tell you how to remove the radio if it was an E36 but I can't help because I haven't removed a E39 radio before.keanbkhoo: There's no way to change the displayed frequency other than to get a new radio that came in a car originating from a country that uses the same radio frequency range as Malaysia. Basically the band expander shifts the frequency up by a certain amount (eg: 10 mhz) externally but the radio itself still thinks it is receiving on the Japanese frequency <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> ) On the newer radios you can actually set the region, if your car is an E46 (or perhaps E36 it might be possible, too) then you can set the region, don't even need a band expander.</blockquote>
