Unpack the LCD, and spend some minutes recognize it's parts.

This is the front side of the LCD module. You can clearly see the 1-16 pins, and the A and K pins (at the left of the image) that used if you want to power the backlight independently. We will not use them.

This is the back side of the LCD module. The two black circles you see are the controller chips. You can also see the 1-16 pins and the A and K pins.

Now take the male pin array

Cut 16 of them if you have a LCD with backlight or 14 otherwise.

Fit them at the back of the LCD

Turn over the LCD and solder the pins from the upper side.

Here you see the pin array soldered

Now take the female pin array and cut the same number of pins you cut before.

It must fit the male pin array like you in at the left images.
