I just got a very nice secondhand reverse camera kit for my camper - but its 7" LCD TFT screen is smashed, as if someone hit it with a hammer (probably due to poor packing) so one option I am considering since I like the kit is to replace the LCD panel?
Before even thinking about trying to do that, I would like to ask if it is likely that I will have to source the exact same 7" LCD panel from the exact same monitor or is it "likely" the LCD panel is generic and can be replaced with any same-sized LCD panel?
My concern is that even though the size of a generic replacement panel may be the same, the original LCD panel may have a very specific type of connector so it would be a waste of time and money to try and find a replacement one.
Please let me know if you think from your experience I am on the write track or barking up the wrong tree?
