Let me preface this by saying that I won't have 3d printable files for the displays on here. They'll either be in their own repo or linked to where it was uploaded like on Printables or Thingiverse, with that out of the way, let's go down the hardware you'll need for most setups.

Hardware options notes
sbc that can drive a display, and be powered at 0.5A Pi Zero 2W, Orange Pi Zero 2W, BPI Zero Other SBC's can be used, assuming you supply sufficient power
Mini HDMI to HDMI adapter Just an adapter, not a cable depending on the board and setup, you might need a micro HDMI adapter or one for micro USB or USB-C to HDMI
internal USB header to the corresponding power port Micro USB, usb A (needs corresponding cable) you may need an internal USB hub or a internal USB PCIE card depending on your motherboard
usb powered display Aliexpress search results there's a lot of options for a display, so shop around for options
molex power to usb for display power this is so you can give sufficient power to a USB powered display (USB cable needed)
