I've recently bought the following screen

with a view to programming to to do some basic functions (time/date/temperature) as part of my cars instrument cluster, and possibly to then add some more advanced functions (home made trip computer?) if that all works out. Anyway. This being my first foray into programming an LCD screen, I'm not sure if I need anything special to drive it (controller/driver chip?). Has anyone had any experience with one of these or similar, or would anyone be able to set me on the right tracks with this?
Cheers
