Default Head unit compatibility

Hello GS owners!

I have a GS350 2008 and have a ML system but my screen stopped working so I bought a used working unit from OfferUp from a 2010 GS350 also with ML but without the cassette player. The adaptors do not plug and play. Any suggestions? I’m kinda stuck at this point...

The screen turned like a brown in the center and doesn’t work to the touch. You can still see it kind of but I can’t control anything on the screen

Would I be able to just use the screen from the 2010 unit and just install that into my older unit?

I have a complete Head Unit from a 2010 that includes the fiber optics and is a ML unit. I took the screen out of it to place it into my 2008 model. If your screen works, I’ll sell you the rest of the complete unit so you can place your original screen in it. It works perfectly. Just couldn’t use it because the fiber optics (Bluetooth streaming) isn’t compatible with the 2008. I have to use my AUX to play music in my car... Let me know.

oh Nice. I’m interesting in your 2010 Head Unit
By the way, what is “ML units”.
And I’m living in northern California.
How do you prefer me to contact you

thanks
