try looking up samsung 152* and samsung 151* (*'s will result in finding any 152 or 151 model ie. 152n 152v 151s etc.) They (at least the 151s and 152n are easilly taken apart but require the FFC extension (no big deal). I just got a 152v for about 120.
Or try for a 150MP, if you look in the "LCD" section I posted a stripdown of a 150MP in response to a thread where someone was asking.
Good luck finding one of those for 100. though they do have all sorts of fancy connections and stuff, right?
well i guess all i can do is keep looking.
it sucks though i just donit wanna buy another monitor that wont work.
and i already have everything else i need

you could start building your projector by using a plexiglass cut to size(14-15") as a dummy screen. To make the dummy screen more realistic, print out a transperence that have gray bars or darken pictures to block most light to mimic the effect of LCD. once you get your LCD, you can swap in the LCD. BUT, leave enough room for PCB board though.
Did you not read any of the responses? I just told you about a monitor that you should be able to get for around $150, plus it has a tv tuner and video inputs so you don't have to buy a separate component to directly play tv and Xbox and Playstation. And no FFC issue. If you don't have to buy a $60 converter box, then the LCD is under $100, right?
I got a 150 mp from ebay for 91 bucks and 10 bucks shipping. It has no issues except that it didn't bring a remote and has one very small blemish on the screen, barely noticeable only in a white background.
My advice is keep looking. Save some searches on ebay like "Vg150" or "150mp" and make it send new search results to your email. I put the interesting ones on my watch list and this is how I got this one for so cheap.
That's my ebay advice 🙂

Also, the vg150's do sell as buy it now for less than 100 most of the time and they are very decent monitors. I have one right here but it has a vsync issue. I bought this one for 25, thinking i could fix it.
