Default Anyone w/surplus Navi/Display unit?

Anyone have an original FUNCTIONAL Navigation/Display unit (part # LJD2440AC/AD/AE) gathering dust? Perhaps you replaced your Navi with the 3-gauge setup, or a modern head-unit? I would be interested in your old part. My original unit has developed a case of cow-pox, a series of largish bubbles of the screen around its periphery (delaminating?). Ugly, ugly. I would like to have a display, albeit old, that does not offend mine eyes.

Yup, I’ve been looking at those, but hesitating about unwittingly getting another door-stop from a recycler. I was hoping for a win/win with a fellow forum member with a known, fully functional unit. Minus that, I may just have to take a leap of faith….

Why not just replace the screen with a Garmin DriveSmart 55? Up to date maps, touch screen, speed camera locations, and the ability to add a back up camera, while looking practically OEM.

Lots of threads on how to do this on the forum.

I have already spent hours studying those threads. All that looks great, but it is just more than I want to get into at the present time. I have a hand-held Garmin that meets my minimal Navi-needs. It would be a jottle to just do a one-for-one original swap.

For those of us not mechanically or electronically inclined, its too bad there isn't someone who can make a plug and play option to do this. I would like to do it because my Garmin connects to a backup camera.
