Hi there, well, you could extract a SB3 display and put it in place of a Transporter's display, they are identical. But I would consider it a big sacrifice too big to kill a working SB3 just for a display that is probably not really fresh anyway. Even if SB3s are cheap on the used market, their displays are far from beautiful in most cases. For people in the U.S. there is a great alternative in buying a brand-new front panel PCB from eBay seller *hotdogtec *here: https://www.ebay.de/itm/362191359449 It's two new displays and no soldering required. As long as the supply lasts that is the cheapest and fastest option. I am offering the MN32032A display which is needed twice for a Transporter for 78.00 EUR per piece plus shipping. It is definitely recommended to change both displays at a time, only replacing one of both will reveal heavy differences in brightness between the old and the new one, no matter how little they have been used. Cheers, Joe PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!
