Hi guys this is a picture of my nav screen in my 03 sc430
The screen has some kind of mark in it can someone tell me what causes it


Can this be fixed?

Looks like moisture to me, but not sure as it's a fairly low res photo.

Have you tried any wipes used to clean your glasses?

If that does not work then the anti glare film covering the screen is messed up and will need to be replaced.
I believe RETRO replaced the film on his screen or knows how to do it...
Maybe someone else has replaced theirs.

I have learned from a professional auto detailer. That any clean products with ammonia wil destroy and remove that anti glare film. That means most window cleaners.

... looks like mountains. Are you in Aspen?


Just kidding... Hope you're able to resolve your issue. Best of luck.

Are you talking about in the upper left corner? If so, that does look like the anti-glare coating coming off. That plastic screen in front of the LCD is actually a pretty complex and custom assembly. Probably the only way it could be fixed would be to re-spray an anti-glare film on it. I have no idea who could do that for you, though.

Thanks for that tip, Coleroad. I don't think I've ever used Windex/ammonia in my car, but I don't think I would think twice about it in a hurry, either, so I will remember now to never do that.

Like BGW70 says the eye glass cleaning pads from Walmart - samsclub is best for cleaning the screens.
