Third brake light bulb replacement
yes thats right. I felt like they were going to break but it didn't. Otherwise removal the internal covering from the top of the boot and long needle nose pliers and unscrew the buld holder that way.

Just under the lamp (bottom side of the lens) there are two clips. you need to insert a small screw driver and loosen them. thats all we did and it popped out.

Seicane radio screen.
sounds like its not keeping the 5v to store the backend on it. I'd check your connections on the back of the radio and see if all plugs are in properly.

Sat Nav from Jpanese to English
You will need a new head unit. Its not possible to convert the existing factory fitted radio to english. Some brands like pumpkin, xtrons etc do it with kits. Have a surf on the forum as people have posted wiring conversion kits on here.

Help buying an Alphard
3L is better. Not struggling up hills the fuel ratio works out the same. But longer trips the 3L handles it much better. If you convert to LPG you'll be laughing so many people opt for this. I haven't as there is not a LPG pump station anywhere near me.

Yes, there is a topic to help you get that arranged. I've followed it and got the brake servo sorted within 2 weeks of my email.

Help buying an Alphard
I would go for a 3L, there are some outstanding recalls on these (brake master cylinder, airbags). When you get one make sure or do 1. full service including timing belt, water pump. 2. change gearbox fluid 3. get the brakes bled 4. Underseal/wax the bottom of the vehicle. Other than that they are good vehicles.

Cheapest Fuel prices in your area.
I found that when we went to IOW that Sainsburys were two pence cheaper than the mainland. Asda may be more but we didn't want the hassle of trying to get through all that traffic.
