The LCD is designed to work with the EL-5100. I assume it works with the EL-5100S too, but not sure. I have an EL-5100S with deteriorating LCD (bleed), so a replacement would be nice.

It's made by the same guy who designed the Sharp PC-1211 LCD replacement, which was featured by Jeff in a Hey Bird! video I would love to see a video on this EL-5100(S) replacement LCD.

Luckily, my EL-5100 is still perfect

I've just done this today! The job was very similar to the PC-1211 replacement (which I had done previously) but more straightforward, because the EL-5100 only has a single circuit board.

Here's a picture showing the result:



Note for UK readers: you can now purchase HalfBakedMaker's replacement displays from Lectronz (link taken from the tindie.com page), which presumably handles the post-Brexit VAT correctly. No more need for forwarding services! (I have no link with the seller other than being a satisfied customer.)
