The LCD panel on my Dell Inspiron 1420 is slightly busted and I want to buy a new one, but I’m uncertain how to look for a compatible panel. Can I use and 14.1” panel with a 30 pin interface or must I use ONLY one’s listed as explicitly compatible with this laptop?

Generally, it is best to buy a panel listed as compatible with your laptop because factors such as panel thickness, width and height, and required voltages can vary. However, if you are certain all factors (dimensions, voltages, etc) for the panel in question are compatible with your laptop, it should be fine. Here is an iFixit guide for replacing your screen when you find a compatible panel:

Ok, so just carefully research and check that all the specs line up and it'll be fine. Good to know for the future, thank you!
