OEM Tech pkg Nav Screen Replacment

Wife and I picked up '12 shawd tech pkg 2 months ago. We love the car but the resolution and clarity of the screen is pretty terrible.

Did some light searching to no avail...is there anyone who can point me in a direction. Of a replacement screen unit or at least a shot of the back of the screen to see what connections I'm working with?

Yeah, I think ebay would be good; however you might check around local Acura dealerships and see if they have some lying around.

Are you thinking a new screen will get you into a HD look? My 08 navi screen is a little muddy and not as crisp colors as I like (reminds me of the overly used VHS tape days and tube TVs). My older 06 TSX touch screen looks more vibrant compared to my RDX screen. My MDX looks the best (or the best you can do with about 8 colors to work with). I've had +10 RDX loaners before and the screens are a touch better in brightness/clarity than the 07-09; but, still lacking. I don't know if a higher res screen would help or it is just the video output of the navi system?

yeah, its not the video output persay...its the pixel density of the screen...its just shitty and low, lol.

thing is...if i can find out the oem resolution (its out there somewhere...ive already found it) and find something with the same ratio with at least twice the pixel density itd look really sharp.
