Just food for thought:

If DVD is not important, you could replace that unit with a standard automotive aftermarket AM/FM/DC unit. They are readily available most anywhere. Something like this maybe:

There are also now in-dash DVD players available than could be easily installed next to the sample unit above.

The wiring for the aftermarket stuff is well documented with the product, and matches the existing wiring in your TT wire for wire. It may take some work to make all the connections, but it is very straight forward. You can safely use the existing loud speakers in your TT as well.

The only other issue would be to fab up a panel for the new radio (and DVD player) to cover the larger opening of the RV unit. I have done several of these conversions with great success.

Here's the link to details on an upgrade I did on my own camper a couple of years ago. I used a radio salvaged from a Cash for Clunkers car so the wiring was actually a little more work than if I had purchased a new aftermarket unit.
