Great guide - but where is a good source for replacement parts?

Ordered replacement part, came within 3 days at ebay. Didn’t have to replace the soft rubber inlet parts, only the connector.
Piece of cake, exchange of battery seems more labourous, but the brush still works for two weeks, so we postpone this job.

Great post, thank-you. One question: My toothbrush has a wire loop around the head. The loop is soldered to the circuit board. Do you know what that wire is for? Cheers!
