Welcome to the mad house, I have gone down the road of not getting a donor and it does make the job harder. Silly things like the connectors to the indicators on the column, they are like hens teeth, I have just been able to source some but they cost way over the odds because people know we want them for kits and that they are difficult to come by, so I would say, speaking from experience if you can get a donor do so.

good luck and don't forget the photos
