Junk yard would probably be your best considering it might be the cheapest. You could try our sponsors and see what their asking for OEM replacement parts but thats probably going to cost a lot more $$$$.

What happened? Did the liquid spill out of its container or something. You didn't have it attached to your air vent did you?

The install is easy. There is a right up with pictures somewhere on this board.

Dont pay the dealer. I can pull out my nav and reinstall it in less than 30 minutes now. Non Nav cars are even easier

Didn't something like this happened to someone in the past and then he brought it to the dealers and they replaced it for free.

btw, where do you guys put your air freshener?
