S5 BCD 7 segment display

Hi

I have an old S5 PLC used to run a machine which previously had a display of sorts to show fault codes for the machine. The drawings show 2 output channels used for the fault codes but make no reference to what device has been used.
I have been looking to use a simple 7 segment display to display numbers 1 to 99 as a simple and cheap method of being able to identify the faults, the PLC program already contains the fault program require I Just need to link up the display but I am struggling to locate a suitable device. Any ideas please

something like this?

Yea that looks great, now to find out where to buy one

I have experience with S5, and S5 to S7 conversion, if needed in the future.
