TRS-80 Model 100 - Display wanted!

I know this is an old post but if anyone else needs this part here's what I did. Went on ebay and bought the yellowest dogged out one I could find but with a screen that worked, or some other problem and I found one for $25.00 plus $15.00 shipping. Took the best of both and now have a perfect M100.

I'd bet if someone was just selling a good screen it would be worth than what I paid.
 
Thank you, yes this is exactly what I did as well.

I actually got 2 extra spare Model 100s. Both required service. One is now converted to Z80-compatible CP/M machine running at 5 Mhz, thanks to hardware wizzard Steve Adolph with his amazing REXCPM - I'll do a video at some point about the conversion:

Regarding the display, a gentleman from here sent me 2 Model 102 displays (THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN!!) - unfortunately, they are different from the Model 100 ones (different connectors), and hence I couldn't use them. If anybody happens to need a 102 LCD, please drop me a note! You'll only pay postage. The gentleman who gifted them to me is fine with that.

The 102 lcd display itself is the same, but it involves unbending the metal tabs and removing the lcd from the pcb. usually its actually the traces on the pcb under the lcd contact strip that are corroded.
 
Jeff Birt has a new supply of Zebra strips that could be helpful to restore either T102 or M100 LCDs.
Don't want to post his email but you could easily track him down I think either by joining the facebook M100 group or the M100 mailing list.
