I was afraid of that nipple being in the wrong spot. I just swapped the rotary encoder out too... Oh well, I guess I can live with it (the current missing-line display) if I cant source another. I wouldn't want to risk $120 on a chance it would not work. The soldering might be a pain, but certainly do-able with some patience or creativity :-)

If only there were 100 of us that needed a new display, we could order from Noritake.
