Default HVAC repair - David Ruberg - digitalguy

I need to have my HVAC controller repaired as the image fades on my 02. Just contacted David Ruberg at digitalguy who says to send him the unit and for $100 he will repair it. Anyone use this guy? Satisfied? Time for repair? Permanence of repair?

Thanks.

Try c5led.com (Corvette Illuminations)

I've used Dave a couple of times and no one does better work -- fair prices, quick turnaround, and quality work with a guarantee.

Can also get the backlighting changed to LED...

$100 for that repair is high in my opinion.

Agreed. A bit of soldering and you are done. Most of the effort is in removing and replacing the unit.
