[ICOM] WTD: 706MkII control head or replacement LCD display

My 706MkII LCD display is starting to get "bleed thru darkening" where dark/black splotches appear on the display. So far it's in the corners or sides where it doesn't interfere with reading the display but I expect it will get worse. Radio is used mobile so is subject to extreme weather variations throughout winter and summer. I expect that may be the cause. Love the radio so would like to locate a spare head (with a good display) or a display by itself (if they are replaceable, haven't taken mine apart to see). Any suggestions on parts availability/replacement of LCD? Radio works fine, not interested in upgrading to a new mobile HF rig.
