I've had the Avic 8200nex for about a month, and the screen is very washed out.  I've played with the settings, but can't seem to make the screen bright.  I can easily read my iPhone in the car, but the head unit is almost unusable in direct sunlight.  The installer is returning tomorrow to fix another problem--a loose connection to the AM/FM antenna.  Do you have any suggestions for making the screen brighter?  Has this been a problem with others?

You really have to play with brightness,contrast in the head unit.
