I have a MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2012 with a broken screen and I have a 2011 MacBook Pro 13" LCD laying around. Will it work on the 2012?
I really don't want to fry anything or ruin a perfectly good screen lol.
Is this a good question?

@drelmoh those are compatible. Your 2011 uses Apple part number 661-5868 and your 2012 a 661-6594.

Apple went with a different connector vendor in the 2012 models so you can encounter issues forcing a 2011 LVDS cable into a 2012 LVDS socket. But that is not an issue for the ever so narrower 2012 cable fitting into a 2011 socket.
I would ask Luis Rossman on YouTube. You has a lot of MacBook repair video and even does these for a living.
