Hello, you seem to have quite a bit of experience with MacBooks and water damage. I was given a MacBook Air 2018 model A1932, which my niece dropped, it didn’t break the digitizer, only the lcd, and it needs to be replaced. I found a whole machine, same model, however it has water damage. I realize that the connectors and cables are most likely damaged, but do you think it would be ok to use the screen from it?

As long as its the same model you can swap the lcd.
