Is it possible to replace a screen on a Sega Nomad?

So, I just picked up a working Sega Nomad at a yard sale. Unfortunately, I managed to put a 1 inch crack in its screen getting it home. Is it possible to get this replaced? Does anyone here do that kind of work? How much would such work cost, if it's possible?

Yes, it's very easy from what I recall... Just pry it off and throw a new one on.

Good luck!



Btw, I was assuming you meant you cracked the outter window (Lens), but if you cracked the LCD it's

obviously a different matter.

THANK YOU, Spoonman! Yes, I only cracked the lens. I've already snapped up that replacment you linked me to. I'm so relieved that I didn't cause expensive damage to my new toy!

some back up monitors are the right size to put in a nomad... and they're thinner, have a better image and use less power so if you wanted to you could put one in and add internal LiIon batteries with the bit of space it saves

Put a couple  rubber bands around it for a while to hold the screen in until the adhesive dries then you're good to go.
