The DVD/CD/FM player that came with my 2010 176 still works but the display is more or less fried and it has some other issues.  I don't want to spend a fortune, but I'd like to replace this thing.  It's the wall mounted dvd player, not the one than hangs from the ceiling. 

Any recommendations?

Well, shoot. I'd let you have ours really cheap, but it is out of a 177 and hangs from the ceiling.

I would check ebay if I were you. You are bound to find something there.

If I was replacing I would go 12v. Just google 12v dvd/tv combo.

Yep!  I agree.  We replaced our whole media stack with 110 ac components which is not a problem with a
30 amp hook-up, but the 12 v. gives you a lot more flexibility.  We would also have gone with a TV/DVD
combo unit if not for some "already got" components.  Read their reviews carefully, though.  Some of
them are notorious for not lasting long.

This unit doesn't have a video display.  You have to hook it up to a TV to watch a DVD.  It mounts in the wall and is roughly 8" x 8" square.

These things are harder to find than you might think.  While I don't want to spend a fortune like I said, I'm okay with spending a few bucks too.
