MI Display screen doesn't work

Right now i am looking at an Rx-8 to purchase its an 04 there's a link to auto trader in-case you want to look at the bottom of this post. Its only problem is the display screen is not working, my question is this an easy fix, how much should it affect the value of the car, and is it worth fixing?

Usually, the screen stops working because there is a bad connection between the faceplate and head unit of the radio. It's a easy fix if that is the problem, if not you can find someone parting out their car and get it from them. It's easy to replace.


I had a similar issue that I fixed myself just by removing the radio and pushing the connection in more.

Agreed. Possible easy fix and not a big deal regardless.
