Powerbook G4 Titanium Question

Hello all!

I have a Powerbook G4 Titanium with a cracked screen, I'm looking to replace this screen with another one. What model screens are also compatible with the M5884 screen???

As an extension to the 400/500 LCD, the 550/667 Mhz "Onyx" LCD models are also compatible. They have the same resolution, use the same connectors and have the same backlight cable.
It's a gruesome task replacing the LCD, you have to pry the LCD casing apart-quite difficult and time-consuming. Just did it on my 1 Ghz TiBook to replace the hinges. Very technical- my suggestion would be to use the LCD and case off of a parts machine. These old TiBooks are altogether pretty reliable aside from the Graphics Card overheating (happened on two of mine) and the M5884 is no exception. You should get more useful service out of the machine-I'd say put money into a parts machine off eBay and just swap screens.
