I have one of those (so called) rare Nismo LCD screen dashes. I'm not really fond of it to be honest, as ive never had the screen working (dont have the required setup).

Basically, it came with my car when i bought it from the dealership, and it wasnt working. I noticed the screen behind the plastic casing had a bit of dust on it, so i decided to take it apart and wipe the screen. BIG mistake.

..The screen smudged at the bottom where i wiped, and left a mark which has never gone away. To be honest im not that fussed with all the "fancyness" of the dash, as id rather get a better look at what speed im doing then be looking at a blank screen at the moment.

So i was wondering...

1. Is it worth keeping? Can the screen be fixed? And if so what computer/device do i need to run something on the screen? who can install it?

or

2. Should i sell it/ swap it (and keep it in storage) with a regular stock R33 Gtst dash?

Im not really fussed by the fact the screens got a scratch to it, as right now im leaning towards finding a stock dash with regular kms and swapping it over, still keeping the nismo one. If its worth getting fixed and it can be easily, ill consider looking down that path

thanks for any opinions :)

yeah they can be worth a bit if you can get them working.

Why dont you put some effort into that? Im sure i saw somewhere on SAU discussion on what it takes to do this.

Otherwise, what do you mean a smear? as in the LCD liquid has broken out a bit (not fixable- means the dash is worth fk all now) or just that the plastic now has a smoggy smear on it from the solvent/grime? (fixable).

Otherwise, an R33 cluster is dead easy to get hold of, dead cheap ($50-$100), and dead easy to install (put led's in at the same time to give it a bit more of a modern feel to it).

yeah the LCD screen liquid is wrecked. Thanks for your help :) I do have an old cluster, but its got lots of kms. So im in the market for one with 80 XXX kms to match my car, then do a straight swap. Thanks mate.
