Privacy monitor hacked from an old LCD Monitor (instructables.com)

Just don't lose those glasses.

I have done something like this. Had an LCD projector with a burn on one of its polarizers. I took the polarizing film off an old LCD display, but it wasn't efficient enough and burned up. However, I found someone online with a different busted projector and traded him some old jumk for the polarizer. The result was viewable but not perfect.
