Buggy SID on a 2000 9-3 SE

Hello,
My first post on this board (also posting the customary car pic). I've been reading it for about a year now & have gotten so much out of this place, I'd like to thank all the experts who continually post here. I bought my car about a year ago & have completely been hooked ever since.
The only problem that has been bugging me is I had a LCD SID display replaced about a year ago due to missing pixels. Since then I have been fighting the non-removable "Time for Service" message. I have done all the quick fix suggestions I have read here, hitting clear & holding it down until it beeps twice & says "service". Also tried holding it down for another 5 minutes afterwards, but I have never been able to get that message to stay off for more than a couple of days at a time.
I'm ready to swap the screen out with a non-bugged version. My question is, where is the best place to purchase one that I can be certain it has the non-buggy firmware loaded onto it? (Warranty is expired). I'd be suspect of getting any display off of Ebay, although there are plenty on there it seems. I have already had the sid replace once & would like to know if I buy another one, it will not have the same problem.
Thanks for your advice.
-Pat S.
