Interfacing (DSI, CSI, I2C, etc.) • Is this the way to wire a Rpi3 to a RED SPI LCD? (not waveshare)

Hello rpi users

I am trying to wire my Raspberry Pi 3 to a new RED LCD ili9486, so that it would have the same GPIO used as the waveshare 3.5" LCDs

Would you think this is a good wiring diagram?

I am still researching what dtoverlay parameters to add in the /boot/firmware/config.txt file

Note: the last photo shows a different RED LCD. It is a 4" ili9488, which I want to make work after this 3.5"
My Raspberry Pi is 3B+ Rev 1.3, 1GB RAM, running the latest Bookworm and Linux 6.12
