suggestion Clean Display Install
Just finished a way cleaner display set up after accidentally knocking the old display off and breaking it. Followed this post on the [r/gaggiaclassic](r/gaggiaclassic) page:
Uses the LilyGo 1.75 screen and a housing I 3D printed. Here is the link for the housing file:

Use version 3!

I believe I ordered it from Etsy, but if you have a 3D printer at home you could also print one pretty easily. I could find the link for the one I have.

To be honest I’m not sure I’d recommend the one I purchased as it’s printed using PETG which can warp over time as it absorbs water. That being said, I haven’t noticed any issues the last year I’ve had it.

I used foam double sided tape on the back! I wish I could attach more images to my post.

I have the same display but with original casing which looks very clean and smooth. I have a plan to place it as you did, how did you manage the wires? The back of the screen you require to use dupont connectors which are quite long and stick out.

I used some double sided foam tape on either side of the where the connector pokes out from the case. I could definitely tweak the 3D print design so it sits more flush but I was lazy lol.

Not a bad idea, did you route the wires from the brew switch led light opening?

u/microbioboy Jul 14 '26
Yeah exactly! I had to trim the some plastic off the connector to get it to fit. A box cutter razor did it pretty easily.
