I replaced mine on my 2006 36 Sovran with a Jensen. The ones on the boat were 12 volt so I could not use a standard one form Best Buy. I got it through Hodges marine. It fits where the old ones were. Here is the link.

I went through the same thing with my 2006 Sovran, but I also learned a little about TV's. It seems many of today's TV's run on 12 VDC and you can get them at Best Buy. all you do is look at the specs. If they are 12vdc, just cut the cord to the power supply and wire into where the old one was!! Biggest problem is, in or around 2006 the TV's for over the air signal switched to Hi Def. So you either need a new TV that gets hi def, plus an antennae that receives hi-def, or you can use the old ones with a converter.
