PRS-T1 Replacing screen

$

Dropped the T1 on holiday onto a tiled floor.. diagonal crack.. reader still working but only the lower half diagonal part of the display refreshes.. So its "donald".

I've found some replacement screens on ebay at around 30 GBP, and managed to take the back off (with some slight damage - probably needs a better tool than a screwdriver and fingernail). I am reasonably skilled at electronic soldering from 30 years ago, and have a 50% success rate on cameras and mobile phone replacements (but they were cheaper, less risk)

If anyone has replaced a T1 screen, is it straightforward or not? i.e. Is it worth attempting a repair?

(Looking at the insides of the T1 its a beautiful piece of engineering, and battery replacement looks feasible btw - 3 wires to solder)
