    I usually just go with eBay. Almost always the cheapest price. I've used parts-people on occasion and they aren't bad either.

    I concur as well Ebay if you can and buy the parts I bought a webcam and display bezel with webcam port for my 1525 that didn't have one and now I have a webcam. Just make sure your parts matches the part they are asking sometime if you know the part that help to find the one that cost less. So look for the part number and the part for the display bezel and compare those prices.
