My repair job from 2010 quit working again. The same failure pattern at first, flickering at startup but eventually staying on. But now, it never comes up to full brightness, and it was very very dim at the outer (left/right) edges. Tried resoldering again, with no luck.
I found the ebay site mentioned above which is the same thing as www.1factoryradio.com. I called them, they said their design is "new" and "their own". Not the original design, and not a reconditioned part. Giving them a try. Don't have to ship the radio like most of the repair places insist on.
The one that Dorman makes is only 50.00 bucks and I've had it in my stereo for over 3 months and still looks good.
