Well it maybe that I do go for a new one from Japan, The bloke rang me back and said he can't get an exact price until Tuesday but he has found the part number and thinks the part should come in at around £80 to £100 at his best guess. The good thing is, on top of this I will only need to pay UK delivery because they would just ship it over as part of there next bulk order. Just got to wait to find out the exact price
finger crossed...

So it could be that it works out cheaper to get a new one, with a second hand one from the States at around $160 plus shipping of about $55, in UK money that totals just under £150 (maybe £50 more than a new one).
