Hi Sean, thanks for the details. Would it be possible to get a new replacement set of internals? I say this because the outside enclosure finish is a bit scratched by my installation in the car dash, but that does not matter to me (not visible in my installation), so there'd be no need to scratch another new enclosure! I'd be willing just to swap out the internal parts. I can remove the unit from my dash and examine the flex cable, etc., but while I'm in there with my dash dismantled, I might as well have a replacement set on-hand. -- skyrush ------------------------------------------------------------------------ skyrush's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=853 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18033 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
