Garmin nuvi 350 - broken screen
If the LCD is actually leaking (big stain on the screen) then it cannot be repaired, only replaced.
Replacing an LCD is a relatively simple job on any GPS, it is normally just a case of opening the casing, disconnecting the ribbon cable on the old screen and putting the new one in its place. As long as you are careful and put everything back where you found it then you should have no problems.
You can check all the parts suppliers in your area or online for a new screen, but for the lowest cost solution I would suggest searching ebay for a faulty nuvi 350 with an intact screen. If you can find one you will probably get it for less than the cost of a new part, plus whatever bits you have left you can always resell. There are always people wanting to buy spares for satnavs.
The dbay seller "Nuvi2007" had the screen, digitizer, tool to open the GPS with, and instructions that I was seeking! Cost was $109, which is reasonable. Thanks for your expert advice.
