Has anyone discovered if the M2 LCD works with the M3 board on the 16" I believe these are the same LCD? I know the M1 and M2 work on the 16" but does the 16" M3 LCD work with M2 LCD or M1? Curious if anyone has tried this yet?

Hi everyone!
I have a 2018 MacBook Pro (with Sequoia OS) that I've been using for years with no problem. I recently received an M2 MacBook Pro so I'm mostly using it and not the 2018 one, but since a friend of mine needs a computer, I thought I could restore my 2018 and give it brand-new-like to my friend.

I am looking at an A2337 and found this for the order of power rails and what they do. Can this be confirmed before I dive into hunting down power rails that do not exist or are not neccisary?
- PPBUS_G3H (12.6V-12.8V)
- This is the main power rail that supplies power to the entire system. Check this rail first, as it must be present for other power rails to work.
- PP3V42_G3H (3.42V)

- PPVRTC_G3H (3.3V)
- This
