OEM Sat-Nav, in need of repair...

Customs Inc · 30th August 2011, 10:31

Ok, so I'm quickly running out of space so need to get rid of the car pretty quick for space reasons so I'm spending a couple of hours today going over what does and doesn't work to save bits that might be of use to other members.

It has factory sat nav, though it doesn't work. The screen only lights up with a dim back light, probably because the components in the boot have evidence of being sat in water. The loom will also need some repair work and possibly a new connector on the tuner. I'm sure repairing it is not out of scope of some of the technically minded folk on here who are handy with the soldering gun, but is anyone interested in it? I'm not interested in keeping it for my next car as I'll be looking at one of Sean's kits, or the BMW upgrades.

In terms of price for all the components and loom, to cover time associated with removing the loom, is it too much asking for £50 for the lot? If it is I might as well just leave it in when it goes to get reincarnated as a fridge and some Coke cans I guess

Just thought somebody might like a project.

Lemme know folks...
