Vertical lines on left of left display, out of warranty

Hello all. I made the investment in a VR headset the moment the quest was released, the $400 price point made it possible for me to bite the bullet, that was 18 months ago… I haven’t dropped or bumped my headset, I’m an older guy and the only user in my living room.

I recently got a vertical green line. Just days later I got 2 additional lines that are white and inverted. I am out of warranty at this point. The Quest 2 has improved resolution and features and reduces screen door so I have zero problem spending $300 on a Quest 2 to replace this…

But do any of you know of a fix for this? Are there display replacements that can be bought somewhere? Are you aware of replacement instructions? I am planning at a minimum to open this unit up and mess with the ribbon cables to see if the problem lies there.

Here is a video of the defect, please reply if the video link doesn’t work: https://photos.app.goo.gl/DwubdT595eQY7i...
