Replacing your Kaoss Pad touchscreen

How to remove a broken screen from any Korg Kaoss Pad and fit a new one. The demo here is with a KP2 but it should be pretty much the same for the first or third models.

I just cracked my kp2 with a rogue plug today, and I'm surprised at how there's absolutely nothing for replacement screens on the net. I'm in Canada, but does anybody know of a site where you can directly order them?
