Purchased in 2009 as a previous rental. We did have an aftermarket video screen installed in the space that was built to hold a screen right after we bought it.
All these years later... I was driving along and the overhead plastic console started sagging. Pretty soon it was sagging a lot in the middle while still attached at each end. I live in California where it gets over 100 degrees in the summer, so I imagine the glue just started giving way and put more pressure on the cheap brackets and small screws. Before I could address re-glueing or taping inside, it crashed down and was hanging by the wires.
I couldn't reattach as the brackets around the screws and other places where it just snapped in were broken. The video screen stayed installed, just everything around it fell. The back end completely broke off before the screw area. I've been driving around with it propped up in the third row, but worried the wiring would get more damaged. Can't really get a decent price if I wanted to sell it like that.
Per garage the part will be $750. Between diagnostics (to make sure all the wires are still connected and all the lights, etc. work safely) and the labor they are estimating $1400. Online websites show the console ranging from $500-800 so there is some markup room there. I'm not an electrician so I guess I can't argue with having the shop check it all out, but the labor sounds excessive!
For what I just put into it (for new tires and now this expense) I could have had some decent down payment money towards something new. Mechanically the car has been pretty good, cosmetically not so much.
