Connecting an LCD

[KansaiRobot]

Hello and thanks always

This must be the stupidest question ever but I would appreciate if someone help me.
Tired of 7segs I bought a LCD. This one over here

However I dont have that kind of connector
Another option is the "Pin headers" but you see these 2 rows of pins? they are so close to each other it is not possible to connect it to a breadboard

Any suggestions...?

P.S. Also do you know any tutorial or resource where I can learn about these basic things: ergo connectors and stuff

Many used Zebra conductive polymer connectors.

Do yourself a favor and get the link for the datasheets

I did.... It still works

I would have been better off with singles anyway.. much easier to work with!!

It wouldnt be the first time where I've made a connector from these with a blodge of hot glue, esp 'lemo' ones that are made from unobtanium.
