Broke TV panel

[jonathani05]

I have a LG 42LB650V TV and today while repairing the backlight i accidentaly broke the tv panel and it shows only black lines. I want to know is it worth it to search for a replacment panel or should i buy a new TV.

also if searching for replacment where do you think is the best place to buy.

thanks

Buy a new one. Not really worth trying to repair a $250 tv.

I think so

But i have another question. Because i dont have the cash to blow on a new TV and to be honest nobody watches real tv we just watch movies do you think that is smarter to buy some cheap 100$ projector and use that for the next year or so until i save for aTV.
