Help Replacement/Repair Parts??

So scavenged the internet wasteland for any online stores that sell repair parts for the Spirit, and I've come up dry. We've been having some awful downpours in Florida lately, and it was just a matter of time before my phone met some water. The problem is, it met a lot of water. No worries though! I took out the battery, dropped the phone into 75 proof isopropyl alcohol (a good water dispersant), wrapped it up in paper towels, and let the phone sit in a bag of rice for almost 12 hours. Everything works on it! I saved it from the flood! ...almost. The AMOLED screen has water (or alcohol?) damage. Everything else works.

Does anyone know where to buy the LED screen and the digitizer?? the digitzier works just fine, I'd just like to buy one for those "just in case" moments.
 
Someone on Fleabay had them just a couple days ago for $80, less than half what the first screens to come up for sale were (are).

Search on LG Spirit, look on the left for Parts listings.

ANyone know how to remove the digitizer? I can't swap the LCD without getting the digitizer off. The connecting ribbon is bigger than the whole it fits through, making it kind of difficult to remove.
