Wow what a great response by all, thanks Guys. I never wanted to replace the whole unit, but was hoping just the LCD part was available.

Thanks to those that supplied links much appreciated, I think I'll go with

Porsche Climate Control LCD Repair Kit | ModuleMaster

I found another firm in Germany that claim they are the genuine suppliers of the part to Porsche, however their price is a bout double to modulemaster.

Again thanks so much for you help everyone and your reassurances that it can be done.

Very good. What was the total cost? How long / complicated was the repair?

Matey if I can do it, believe me ANYONE can do it. Very simple actually 2.5/10 All up about 45 mins from taking it out of the car and re-installing in car

The LCD was USD$50
Unfortunately the postage to me was almost the same, but I had no choice I needed it, car looks prettier now
