    Hi All,
    The MFD unit in my 2006 Prius is dead (worked intermittently for a week or 2 w/ screen sometimes appearing over saturated, now completely dead for several weeks).
    Any opinions on if it's better to send it out for repair (like to AutoBeYours), or buy a refurbished unit on eBay? One concern w/ an eBay unit is that I'm not sure which is the right model - I have the system w/ backup camera, nav, Bluetooth, etc. The ones I see on eBay don't seem to have nav for the most part.
    I don't want to spend a ton of money because my Prius has 361k on her, but I just had the HD battery replaced so a one year warranty on the MFD like AutoBeYours offers is attractive.
    Thanks for any thoughts or advise!

    you will see the part number on the unit when you pull it out, ebay search that number but id buy from a local junk yard so you can return it if its bad, even look on craigs list..
