Instead of buying direct from the manufacturers, I wanted to know if anyone can give some names of companies I can get replacement parts for most or all the phones, ie. charger ports and LCDs mainly.
I googled but mainly found online repair facilities and not just parts, Im authorized to buy from Moto but in past experiences always found items cheaper elsewhere.
Also, on the charging port for the micro and mini-usb, if I buy from Moto is it the same type for all micro and minis on non-Motos? Done properly stripping charging ports from phones, will they work right on the new handset?
Thanks in advance.

1. Ebay is a pretty good bet for Lcds. I would try to order from a U.S shipper. Parts shipped from China take about 14-21days to receive. (I can't wait that long.........................)
2. The Micro or Mini ports will NOT work on ALL phones (Blackberry will work with Sidekick LX System Connector / USB Charging Port)
3. Mirco ports are a MoFo to repair 20/80 success rate
4. Stripping ports ??? WHY ?? a new Port is only $2 - $4SLEEP IS OVER RATED

I dont know if anybody has noticed but a lot of parts being sold as A Stock I think this means used. Test your parts when they come in and make sure they are working. I like to stock parts and sometimes I don't use them for a while. By the time i ready to use the part it sucks to find out that it dosent work and good luck trying to return them and get your $$ back or even an exchange.
Check whats best for you

Re: Where can I get parts for repair?
Just an update to this:
wirelesspartsinc.com sells garbage, they really do. Flex cables really are bad and some digitizers as well, Ive lost alot of money using these idiots. One good thing about them, shippping is fst as hell!
globaldirectparts so far seems ok
I found one that is pretty ok to use but slow shipping, cellularpartsusa.com
Search is still on for one that provides all requirements, price, quality and speed.
