Samsung ST66 and ES78 pocket camera parts

Hello again. Since I found the parts I wanted on this forum very quickly (thanks, Trevor), I think it is worth the shot, even though this is for pocket camera parts.

I have two cameras that I want to see working:

1) Samsung ST66: looking for one with a dead LCD/motherboard as I want the lens assembly. (there are plenty on eBay but all of them have the same lens assembly fault).

I have actually disassembled this camera to its atomic elements as they say, even the lens assembly, and would have pretty much got it working until while finally assembling the thing, I realized there are some broken plastic "stubs?" that were also missing. I really need the entire assembly. Sad

2) Samsung ES78. I want the LCD only so anything else can be pretty much dead. Other models that would work instead of this one would be : ES70, ES73, ES75, PL100.

I prefer if they can be found in Nottingham, UK for me to collect and save money. Please note the LCD would cost me only a tenner to buy new, posted to my address, but I'm looking to spend a tenner on both these cameras (or at least the ST66, such a handsome little gizmo).

Irrelevalnt rambling below:
=================
I bought them broken as they are. The idea was to convert them for IR. I removed the IR/UV cut filter from the ES78 but since there is no LCD, I cannot control any of the settings or see if it's focusing right. The ST66 did not have a separate filter. It is possibly welded to the sensor.
