Default Source for 8" oem style GPS unit?

Anybody know where I can purchase the Chinese made 8" GPS/DVD deck?
Looks like the vendors on Alibaba are out of stock, and who knows when they are gonna get them back.

Thank you very much

I sure hope mine doesn't break if they are becoming hard to find. When I got mine, I bought two, for a total of about $1300-1400 CAD. Ended up selling one on eBay to try and make a few bucks.

None of these Alibaba Express vendors have them in stock. Ive asked them when they will restock and have yet to receive a reply. I will post my findings but in the meanwhile if anyone has information to share, much appreciated!

Interestingly enough, they don't show our model on their product page anymore.

I believe these are the same manufactures. I've left an email with LSQ but haven't heard back, they have the item listed on Alibaba too but they are not replying there either.

Thanks for your help man! Sounds like even if I do find a set, after service of any kind will be a nightmare.

Fairly certain LSQ is a distributor and Roadrover is the actual manufacturer of the product.

Anyone selling theirs???
