Yes I am

I will supply a shipping kit and a return shipping label Garmin will refurbish units if you want to keep yours - http://www8.garmin.com/support/outofwarranty.html (Having Garmin refurbish units will cost between $60 and $100, depending on your model.) Or, you can sell it to me... I recycle it and you make some cash.

I am looking for non functioning Garmin eTrex GPS units I can salvage for parts. If it has a blank display, cracked plastic, blank lines in the display or non-functioning joystick, etc... that's OK I am willing to pay up to $20 each for unit. I will send the money via PayPal (I will pay the transaction charges)

Hey guys, - a possible replacement for the adhesive - I have no idea what the exact original adhesive was but, I believe that this is the same flavor - This stuff is very strong and very sticky. And like the original it is an adhesive transfer tape Here This is what I did... Attempt at your own risk Carefully peel off the rubber portion of the extrex - do not stretch it out!! Clean off the original adhesive - If I remember right, it will scrape off with a fingernail or sharp-ish plastic or wooden scraping device of your choice and lots and lots of patience NOTE: I used an orange oil adhesive remover (Goo Gone) and it swelled the rubber and darn near destroyed it... I shoulda known better but, some days I'm dumber than others If you are semi-savvy in in the world of electronic devices - this is where you pop the enclosure apart and fix the loose ribbon cable that is causing lines in your display or the other issue that is causing your joystick to be intermittently unresponsive (insert erectile dysfunction joke here) Clean the adhesive surfaces with isopropyl alcohol (enclosure and rubber trim) Close the patient and apply the aforementioned adhesive transfer tape over the seam, button holes and enclosure snap-feature holes. The original looked like it had about 2-3 layers of adhesive. Apply rubber - go slowly and carefully. I used the wrist strap notch and connector flap for alignment points ~Corey
