I found one listing online thats almost identical, but it was at a crazy price at 80 Euro. Spec: 120mm (4.7in)

Yeah i was really hoping i could find one that will just work out the box, but im starting to think it would be better to buy the whole thing new rather than trying to fix it and potentially waste more money into it.

    Part of my job is designing products that use this type of display.

    Every single one is different, and they only produce them for a few years at a time. Even if the layout and pin count of the fpc is identical, it's likely that the pinout won't be.

    Unless you have a very good reason to believe that you found the exact same part, I wouldn't even try plugging a different one in
