Chosen Solution
I have a 17" MBP screen which i’d like to reuse as an external monitor. The screen (ltn170ct10-a05) has a I-PEX 20474-140E-12 connector. The driver i purchased on ebay (m190a1-l01) has a wide flat connector compared to the one of the screen. I’m stuck at the part of connecting the screen and the driver together since the cables don’t match. I’m pretty familiar with soldering but i’m not completely sure which cable goes where.

The seller on Ebay said that it would be compatible but looking at the information on Panelbook it doesn’t mention the screen i have.
@paparashie your driver is definitely not what I expected. The datasheet speaks about a Chi Mei CCFL backlight monitor whereas your monitor is a LTN170CT10-A05 which is a LED backlight monitor. So whatever driver you have will not work. I am not sure which seller or which part you bought, but it would help to get that information from you so we can check even further. Or at least post some picture of the driver you received. Use this guide Adding images to an existing question for that.
