Mail-In Service: How it works
DIY Option: How it works
Our customer with a 2011 Tige Boat had a blacked out, delaminated display. Dealer quoted him $6k USD to fix. We saved him over $4k while upgrading the display!

DIY Installation
Are you patient, meticulous, and familiar with small electronic repair like replacing a cell phone screen?
This might be the choice for you! Check the video and make sure you are comfortable with DIY installation before ordering.
Very clear instructions and easy to install myself! Works fantastic now.
EDIT: increased review to 4 stars for forgetting the dimmer controls only work in night mode. It is a really good replacement screen. I also don't KNOW that my unit is any dimmer or brighter than the original since my stock backlight went out. But it feels dimmer in practice and is certainly noticably dimmer than the top screen (seen in uploaded picture post repair). Overall very happy with the successful replacement though.
ORIGINAL:
The screen works well as a replacement and is simple enough to DIY.
It doesn't appear any brighter than the original though (as advertised). In fact, if anything it seems a bit dimmer and colors are more muted. Also, the software dimmer control doesn't seem to affect the brightness at all anymore. Touch screen also doesn't seem any better than OEM as I was hoping for lighter touches working better.
Overall, it was better than replacing the entire unit, but slightly disappointing in performance. But, perhaps my unit is different or I missed something in the DIY.
Hi Colton, thanks for your order.
Independent lab testing shows 30% increase in measured brightness across the surface compared to the original control unit. Your ambient lighting conditions will greatly alter your perception of the brightness compared to your original
Regarding the touch response- it is calibrated carefully to be not so sensitive to have accidental button presses with your knee bumping on it as that could be a safety concern. There is a balance to also have it be not too difficult to press. Its pretty close to the original in those terms. Our last gen 1 unit had feedback it was too difficult so we made the improvements to your gen 2 display for more sensitivity.
The dimmer controls are adjustable in settings and to activate dim mode, you need to press the night button. Otherwise its at full brightness all the time. Dimmer controls do not affect the brightness unless you are in night mode, this is normal.
Hope this explanation helps. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us to continue to improve future revisions.
Very pleased with the repair. Back light went out so screen went black. removed from boat sent it in and within 2 weeks I had it back and installed. Works perfect.
2011 Malibu Waksetter 24LSV. Screen died on Friday, screen ordered on Saturday, and was back in the water by Wednesday. It's better and brighter than before. Awesome stuff!
Screen arrived in reasonable time, easy to install and excellent tech support
