        @sw76 why not use a old Screen or TV… build or buy a frame and put everything together.

          @Stoffbeuteluwe Thanks for the tip with the translator and about the device, it is a disused, slightly damaged device and I thought I could still use it for the mirror.

            @sw76 if the screen is ok you can use ist…but if you have a broken screen I think you can see it through the mirror.

              You can find universal LCD controller boards for cheap on eBay or AliExpress. Try to find the datasheet and if the LCD has a LVDS interface I’ll help finding the best controller board. A quick Google search didn’t show anything useful. Maybe post pictures of the LCD panel with all labels visible.

                @Stoffbeuteluwe the screen is ok only the picture is a bit bluish and before it lands on the garbage i thought it would be suitable

                    @sw76 I am sorry, I couldn’t find a datasheet for that screen. It’s generally tough to find datasheets for TV displays. Had the same problem when I build my mirror. In the end I found a free broken computer screen with a working LCD panel. Maybe that’s a better option for you.

                    Also, I assume the blue tint is a problem with the panel itself and not a problem with the controller board. Maybe it’s just the cable, though. Check both end for continuity.

                    Good luck with your project!

                        Yes this is a real problem with the display and controller.
                        Try to contact a controller seller on eBay (e.g. https://www.ebay.de/usr/csmqshop) and give them your display number. With luck, he could help you.
