PLEASE HELP - Broken LCD

Hi,
I bought my new Vaio (VGN S4XP) 3 weeks ago and due to an accident the screen is broken. Actually a small piece of tile on the wall fell on the LCD and it's got a dent in it and has gone complete white (does not work). The rest of the laptop and casing is absolutely fine... Go figure that. 🙂
The model has the 13.3" widescreen Xblack LCD.

I spoke with the Sony guys in UK and they say that it will be sent to Paris and a charge of £41 shipping + return & anywhere from £281 to £400 for replacement might occur. The lady I spoke with could not tell me exact price for a new screen to be replaced.

Does anyone know any other place (in UK) where I can get this done cheaper. If the price is much cheaper then I really do not care about the warranty to be void.

PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks in advance.

Although I am now sending the unit to Sony but this site is extremely helpful. Atleast it has told me the complete assembly of the screen and other things.

Many Many thanks.
