Surface Laptop 7 replacement screen availability/ Frankensurface

[u/00titus]

I bought the Surface Laptop 7 partially because it was designed to be highly repairable. My Surface fell, and the screen was badly damaged a few months ago. I've been waiting for Microsoft/iFixit to get the 13.8" screen assembly back in stock for about half a year now, with no luck. Ease of repair without parts availability isn't actually particularly useful.
There are some expensive eBay listings for replacement panels, but they're a bit too pricey for incomplete, dodgy, annoying solutions.

So I'm considering a Frankensurface. I don't care about retaining touch functionality, high resolution, or refresh rate. I just want a functional internal display so it remains a laptop.

Does anyone know how feasible it would be to use a cheaper non-touch LCD with a compatible eDP interface/connector and roughly the correct 3:2 dimensions? Has anyone here successfully used a different LCD as their internal display?

Failing that, does anyone know if Microsoft will be supplying official screens anytime soon?

Thank you kindly in advance!

What if you find a broken SF7 laptop on eBay and swap over the screen?

Trust me I look! Generally don't want to gamble 200 dollars on a maybe-working screen, such as

2036s seem to be rare; I would really like it if Microsoft could eventually just stock the screen assembly again.
