Who can fix a Radio??

Does anyone know a shop/store that can fix a stock 03 Bonneville radio??

The 2 lights that light up the screen burnt out.. (Davis at SS told me they were surfice mounted lights).. (WTF is a surfice mount light BTW??)

anywho.. I dont want to put an aftermarket deck in, so I need this fixxed.

and dont tell me to go to Selective Sound, since I'v already been there..

srraight up is not even worth fixing a stock radio , like others said , it is better to just find a new one at the records.

However if the radio has some sentmental value to you ( you never know) , I know a place in mississauga where they fix radios, actually go on the yellow pages an look for electricians .

I m a aprentice electrician myself however i would not even try to fix something that is not mine yet , but any certified electrician should be able to fix it.

I know a guy mark that can most likely fix the lights for you. I will give him a call for you.

those are surface mounted LEDs which are soldered to a pcb...the solder connections are probably cracked...so hitting it fixed it for now...a bump may unfix it though...to really fix it you need to take it apart and resolder the connections on the pcb without melting anything else
