CCFL source for laptop LCD?

I narrowed down the issue with my laptop to the CCFL being bad after replacing the inverter board. Now that I have this thing apart, I don't want to re-assemble with an old CCFL, where can i find a source for one that preferably has a samsung harness, or at least leads?

A buddy of mine sent me here but these are bare. I'd love to avoid trying to solder something like this.

as always, any help is appreciated.

For the most part, all you'll find are just the bare CCFL lamps. With that said, resoldering the CCFL in some Thinkpad LCDs is a HUGE pain the ass and you're much better off replacing the panel. Take a look here: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewforum.php?f=11 There should be a couple T4x compatible LCDs up for sale there. What you can also do is send off your current LCD to have the CCFL replaced. Should run you about $100.
