Replace broken ZIF connectors on the screen

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi everyone,

While removing the screen from my Apple Watch Series 3 GPS+Cellular using a suction cup, I applied more pressure than I should and broke the ZIF connectors on the screen:

The soldering terminals appear to be mostly intact; maybe only one missing on the middle socket.

Do you think it would be possible to repair it somehow? If so, where do you think I can find the reference oft the ZIF connectors I would need to put back into the screen?

This is not critical, as I was only repairing the watch that was in the drawer for years to give it to a friend. But, if I could fix it with a workaround, that would be great. Thank you beforehand!
