Default Pioneer CD Player Easter Eggs...

I'm sure most of you are aware of the Easter Eggs available with the Scion's CD Player where you can change the display message. (For those of you who are not, pick up a copy of the big Scion booklet with the Yellow and Black Cover from any Scion dealer, there's a page on Easter Eggs in there).
N E Wayz, my question is, Has anyone been able to do the Japanese Charicatures for Scion on the 6-Disc CD Changer?? I can't push the buttons and finish the sequence in time, my CD PLayer takes too long to load a CD!!! Thanks....

The A button is the audio control button next to the volume buttons on the left of the CD PLayer.

I actually just got that to work last nite...it looks pretty good too! i dont have the guide in front of me, but i had a friend help me since i dont have 6 hands.

I followed the guide directly. Theres the instructions you have to follow for any of the easter eggs, make sure you do that first, then the more specific directions for the Japanese text...

Speaking of which... i cant wait to get outta work and have my stereo greet me in Japanese...SWEET

The Easter Eggs work on either. I was just having problems timing mine (You have 15 seconds to do the sequence of events) because my 6-Disk Changer takes too long to load a disc, which is involved in the Jap. text steps.

You can put the disc in already, and have it set up to track two.

I have the 6-disc in my xA. And I got it to say SCION in JAPANESE.

Well, i think its neat. but when i first did it, it was kind of a let down. cuz ive read other people sayin it was all kinds of hot stuff and i finally got it to work after like, 8 billion times tryin. and i was like. . . . 'thats it?' but its somethin different then SCION, or what corney greetings i had in it before.

oh yeah, and to answer that question by crazy_kat_matt, you just have to put a CD in, put it to track 2 (easier if you have the single disk player, or just put one in and turn it to track 2 before you turn yer car on) then press and hold the "folder down" and "text" at the same time and turn the key from acc to off. but i recall it not workin doin it that way, i think you have to put the "A" button down before that. like, turn it on then hold "A" then turn it off, push the folder down and text then turn the car on, then off. or somethin like that. but just play around with it. Im sure someone else has a better explanation than what i provided.
