Question European radio tuning??

Hi, I live in Norway and today I bought my so far coolest, most expensive car, a 2008 Tundra 4,7 litre V8. The radio is made for US radiosignals and that means I can't tune into the radio stations in Norway that has a frequency ending with even numbers. US fm frequencies consist of only odd numbers while the European system use both odd and even number frequencies. Is it possible to change my radio in some way so that I can tune "the european way"??


PS: -08 Tundra 4,7 litres in Norway costs about 95622 USD. That's propably why there are very few Tundra in Norway. I've only seen a Tundra twice where I live and one Tundra in a city with about 125000 people says something about why people often turn their heads and look my way now that I am the preoud owner of Tundra number 2 around here My Tundra has only three seats in it because it is very expensive to register a Tundra with 6 seats here. If I wanted a Tundra like the one I have only with 6 seats it would cost me about 188000 USD. Belive it or not!!! I belive we have the most expensive tax and toll system on cars in this world....

If you can afford a toyota tundra, you can also afford a 1/2-DIN conversion kit and buy yourself a radio or a satnav, google is your friend....

Thank you Zandro!!! I was not aware of this. I was afraid I would mess up my dashboard if I went installing another radio... Anyone that has a picture of a 1/2-DIN conversion kit built in to a tundra? I'm a little curious how it looks

I've been on vacation for some weeks now driving around in my Tundra and I must say I've never driven anything better. Everytime I park the car someone comes up to me telling me what a cool car I've got... This is offcourse because there are almost no Tundras in Norway and most cars here are much smaller and have a max of 2-2,5 litres engine...

Talking Gjengetappen from Norway

Yes. This is gjengetappen from Norway Verden er slett ikke stor. Likevel godt gjort av deg å koble såpass

Best to keep most of conversations in english I think, some may find it annoying with loads of Norwegian posts in this forum hehe
