Reconnecting Maschine STudio Screen

Hey guys, after a cat pee accident, I was attempting to clean my Maschine Studio. I got it taken apart, cleaned, put back together just fine. All the buttons and knobs and encoders and everything work just fine, but I cannot seem to get the screens to work. I have a feeling the ribbon cable isn't plugged all the way in, but im not entirely sure, and there is apparently zero help on stuff like this on the internet.

There is this plastic box that I think is just a cable guide that makes getting an angle on the flex cable on the screens pcb almost impossible to get. Does anyone know anything about this, have any pointers, etc etc? From what I can tell, the plastic piece is just glued on there (Theres glue squirting out of the sides). Does it need to be on there? Could I just xacto it off? I know that tseems crazy, but I'm kind of at my witts ends on this one.

And worse case scenario, where does one get replacement screens?

Ok, I don't think I could set that cable any tighter. Still no screen. I've messed with the contrast settings and all that, but nothings happening. This isn't THE biggest deal in the world, since its a Maschine, so the computer is right there, but still really, really annoying.

Any ideas? Is there a chance I damaged the cable? Where would I go about finding that out?

Probably not the best place to come looking for advice on maschine. Hit up Saint Joe at MaschineTutorialsDotCom or or the MaschineMasters site.. Damn you're beating the hell out of this beauty huh? First the pads now the screen fam?
