But not without tweaking the files a little bit to reflect that this is not an original Prusa.
For the assembling you need :
LCD-Controller with SD card reader € 6,67
2 M3x10mm Screws
Allen wrench that fits the M3 screws
Plastic parts that Prusa shares as STL, STEP and SCAD files on GitHub
The 2 supports slide from the side over the LCD circuit board, which is then secured by a notch and the 3 M3 screws in the plastic part.
Then you need to attach the cables. Both red marks have to be on the side of the smart card reader.
Then the knob is attached and you have your LCD assembled.
This is a part that makes me wonder about the pricing politics from Prusa. If you order the LCD board from Prusa as a replacement part they will charge you 57,32 € for it, plus shipping. So 10 times more as if you buy it from a Chinese seller.
Maybe Prusa does some testing to ensure every LCD is properly working and that would justify a price that 2 double the price of the part. But 10x more?
