Arne Büsing without knowing the actual panel number and only going by the information you gave us it looks like it is compatible with the following:
MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.0GHz Core i7 (A1286) - Early 2011
MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.2GHz Core i7 (A1286) - Late 2011
MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo (A1286) - Late 2008
MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.4GHz Core i5 (A1286) - Early 2010
MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo (A1286) - Mid 2009
Your panel should be one of these models
LP154WP3, LP154WP4, LP154WE3-TLA1 or LP154WE3-TLB1 if so, it’ll fit.

Are you up to replacing the LCD panel alone? Or do you need to replace the full display assembly (case damage).

I was planning to replace the full assembly. I don't have the tools to remove the glass, so buying a used assembly is the cheaper choice.

Then you'll need the correct assembly part as there is enough differences in the part to prevent the substitution of the full assembly.
