Navi Screen Protective Cover?

I just got my 06 TL Navi and being the anal person I am I wanted to protect the touch screen. I know they make those PDA clear plastic pieces for, does anyone know of one for the TL touch screen. Last thing I want is big scratches in the touch screen. Thx!

I bought one and didn't like it. Now I just use a microfiber towel and some Invisible Glass to clean it.

However, if you really want to buy a protector, see this thread. Click Here

Cheaper solution is just to use the joystick.

Fingers won't do any harm. Now if you were to use those "Pen" you get in PDAs(Palm,IPAQ) that will do something

Use the joystick whenever possible & only clean w/microfiber towel provided w/car (just like the one U use on glasses)

I use Stoners Invisible Glass on a microfiber towel, works perfect on the navi screen.

Do you find that it does a good job of stopping fingerprints? Or is it just good at protecting from scratches?

Just scratches. I still use glass cleaner and microfiber on it.

I used to have the same opinion as others above that a protector was unecessary if you're just using fingers. The problem is fingernails = scratches...

Just installed the one from strongs and it fits perfectly. However it's not totally invisible. The adhesive on the edges creates a very slight border that's noticable when the screen is on. When the screen is off it's even more noticable. But even still it's better than getting a scratch on the screen!
