Requesting Advice on Repairing Head Unit

I have a 2007 SL55 with Sirius and Navigation. The head unit display recently went wacko. Nothing is displayed at all -- just basically white with some various colored small vertical lines. All of the audio functions still work (when i can remember the right sequence of button presses to access them.) Any suggestions on a company to repair the unit would be appreciated.

Cecil

P.S. I'm in Columbia, SC. The dealer here is actually pretty good. Just wanting to explore other (perhaps less expensive) options.

Okbarnett - thanks for the suggestion. I will check them out.

V10boost - Unfortunately no warranty left. Too many miles.

CL63 N/A 2008
I've just talked to them, they can't repair Siemens units. I've got a 05 CL55 with not optical signal from the Headunit

Anyone know how to tell who makes the radio, without removing it? Radioman.com said even with Bose speakers the radio maybe different.
