Emax

you can do it like that if you want but you will need more slack on the cable plus also it will be hard for you to insulate

plus you will have a mass of wires under the lcd pcb

but if you are happy to do it that way then fine

you are the one doing the work and its you that has to fit the lcd panel back to the pcb

having fitted vfd and lcd and oled modules to over 100 synths and samplers im just pointing out the pit falls

  I know what you want to say but isn't it possible to do it just from the front ?

  Sorry, best
