| Hi Could anybody tell me where's the best place to get my TT 730GO repaired. The little black plastic circle where i plug the RDS-TMC has snapped off and now the traffic doesn't work. |

| I am not too sure if the connector can be purchased and have never seen them on sale, if RDS-TMC is something you need a cheaper option will be to purchase the slightly newer RDS-TMC receiver which uses the mini USB socket see Here nearly half price can be found on e-bay though Here - Mike |

I had a look on there earlier and couldn't find any mini USB receivers cheaper than e-bay, plenty of the receivers with the round plug but they are no good in this instance - Do you have a link per chance?? - Mike |

£25.87 on Amazon here, but it didn't find it when I included 'usb' in the search terms.

Sorry for not providing a link, but search was so straightforward - and did use 'usb'.

I just bought a USB one and it's so much more convenient - plug the car charger into it and leave it in the vehicle, then starting up I only have to plug in one item instead of both the power and the aerial.

By the time you multiply that across the number of items you have on your dashboard (a.k.a. The Keynsham Jodrell Bank), that must be quite a bit of time you are saving Dennis!
