What screen do I buy for my Sega Nomad mod?

Hello, I've been wanting to do this TFT lcd screen mod for my Sega nomad for a loooong time but I can't find a working screen for it. I've been following this tutorial for the past 3 screens I've bought: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=23LciT660Zk

Alright so first I bought this screen: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0045IIZKU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1427925141&sr=8-1&keywords=tft+3.5+inch+monitor&pi=AC_SX200_QL40&dpPl=1&dpID=41RGmQvVWiL&ref=plSrch

Which I read a lot of people have used and worked great. Mine didn't work, it has bad colors and the screen is rolling vertically. I've seen other people have this problem and nobody was able to fix it, so I just got another one from that same link but from a different person... It did the same thing. Here's a forum post of somebody else who had this problem, he includes a link to a video: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/229659-sega-nomad-new-35-lcd-rolling-screenbad-colors/

So then I bought this one from dealextreme:

It did the same thing as the other two!

So I watched the video again to see exactly what he used and I noticed that the board on his screen was blue and mine were green. So I read some forums and I guess the screens I got we're all pal screens hence the bad colors and rolling screen...

The question is has anybody bought this screen?

It looks just like the one in the video... Blue, you can unplug the wires from it etc. I don't want to waste another 20 bucks on a messed up screen!
Please help!
