Source for LXP-15 Display

[sr1200]

Title pretty much says it all. Does anyone have a source for a replacement display for the LXP-15. I don't have the item on prem yet, and am a little wary of taking it on if i can't get a replacement for it. Thanks in advance Happy Holidays!

If it's anything like the MRC I use with my LXP it's a generic display, maybe a 2x40. I got mine from ebay for a few pounds. I got the info from this
I think I wound up using a slightly different display, but as long as it follows the Hitachi standard you can compare data sheets & wire accordingly. The other thing is that many of the displays use electroluminescent panels for the back light & the modern ones use led backlights. Therefore one needs to bypass/remove a voltage invertor for the back light & hook it up to the 5v line.
