Here are two shots of the screen and the display, and the last two pics are of the back of the screen. Thanks for all the help!

I didn't write those, just a few of the others on that page. anyways I have a new ribbon somewhere. I would leave it off until you figure it out. The only thing you will need is a small Philips screw driver for the screws on the side of the screen (just the upper as it will flip over allowing you access

and a T20 for the 2 screws retaining the radio

well..... it looks like your ribbon harness is out of place in the picture. You can send it to me and I will put it back at no charge as it is a 5 minute job, or you can give it another go. I'm in Ohio
