Where can I buy the glass screen digitizer?

Bryan -

Thanks for instruction, it helped me a lot, but removing of battery in step 5 makes no sense. The battery stays on the metal plate and does not disturbs for next steps. Of course the cable must be disconnected from the board to make it powerless.
