I got one from Aerotect. They are selling them. It's pretty cheap too. Like 10-15 bucks. Easier to clean finger prints, and peace of mind when your friends mess with the navi.

I switched from clearguard to http://stores.ebay.com/ScreenPatronus, it's a night and day difference.

Perfectly, just a 1/32 or so of free space all around.

true you don't NEED one -- but I plan on keeping this car a long time....so I don't want a f'ed up nav screen when $12 could have prevented any issues.

Same here. But after 4 years I plan to take the Screen Patronus off. Along with my Clear Bra. It will be like a whole new car again.

They could have sent you the wrong one, maybe for a different make and model?

Might want to contact them, they'd probably just send you a new one.

hmm, I'm thinking about trying this screen patronus one.. since I f-ed up my install on the clearguard. I tried peeling it off with my finger nails to re-align and I messed up the edge... Not a big deal but the right lower corner doesnt sit well and sticks up a bit.
