Envy 15 j000ec IPS screen?

[OkiGraphics]

Hi!

I would like to replace default poor quality TN fullHD panel on my Envy 15 j000ec with fullHD IPS panel. According to official Maintenance and Service Guide, there is an IPS panel available:

15.6-in, full high-definition (FHD),
white light-emitting diode (WLED),
BrightView (1920×1080), slim (3.2-
mm), UWVA (IPS), color gamut
72%, typical brightness 300 nits,
16:9 aspect ratio

Is this particular panel set only for TouchScreen display assembly(720550-001)?  Or is it also possible to buy as subassembly (just panel without webcam/microphone, etc)? If it's possible, how could I find it without spare part number and where could I buy it (Europe)? Thank you in advance.

The IPS panel is apparently only offered in a package with the entire touchscreen assembly but that does not mean you cannot replace your display panel with an IPS panel with the same physical layout and connectors. 

This ebay auction shows your screen panel layout:

Its a 15.6 inch with the 40 pin rear lower right side connector. 

This one would work and it is shipped from UK:

I did not do any serious searching and I am sure it could be found cheaper, and probably an even higher spec screen. "IPS" is kind of a vague description these days and the devil is in the actual spec details.
