Display of my Garmin Edge Explore 1000 cracked and screen is no longer working. Garmin support tells me that this cannot be repaired. However, I see new displays for $30 on AliExpress. Has anyone ever attempted to replace the screen themselves?

I have a 'damaged' screen display too! See attached images.
Unit has not been dropped or suffered any other trauma. The damaged display seems to centre on where you touch to power off.
Do you think that one of the eBay screens might help? Any link to the specific item?
Power switch also split but I can work around that.
Really don't want to shell out over £400 for a new item if I can avoid it.
Hi, this is what I had ordered from AliExpress, was installed in less than an hour and works perfectly.

However, mine is the Edge 1000 Explore, yours seems to be the Edge 1000. So, maybe you may need a slightly different one. Also, if you want to make the installation even easier, consider to order one that has the frame attached to the display already. Else you will need to separate the broken display and the frame using a blow dryer or heat gun. Bit more expensive but saves some trouble.
i used them....all worked fine and came quickly
