I'm leaning towards the display itself, does anyone know where such displays may be obtained from these days?

Old calculators >:D

Yes, old calculators is a source, problem is that these don't often come up for sale very often these days. I suspect most of these LED type calculators just get dumped nowadays as people don't believe there is any value left in them. I actually prefer the look of a nice red LED, green LED or the green florescent displays, so more relaxing on the eyes and warm feeling.

Or old people who have spare components. I have a box of similar displays (some even from Commodore calculators). Can you post a picture of the display component and I'll check if I have one.

Yeah peoples were talking about them somewhere on the forum. Look like they are a bit like Keysight where they just want to sell to business and not individuals. From what I can read in there listing, should be fine buying from the states.
I'll let you know just ordered one of those ;)
Edit: the discussion was not over here but on groups.io https://groups.io/g/LeCroyOwnersGroup/topic/lecroy_ebay_store/989710?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate/sticky,,,20,2,0,989710,previd%3D1655564782545298826,nextid%3D1651335155808914573&previd=1655564782545298826&nextid=1651335155808914573
