    Nissan Pao Radio

    You will need a convertor that plugs into the antenna socket (and needs 12 volts) to convert American FM frequencies to the frequencies this radio is set for. It's a small device and inexpensive. https://www.amazon.com/Expander-Converter-Shifter-Japanese-108Mhz/dp/B06Y2Z93MW

    Pao Power steering racks available?
