Where can I buy fan for a Surface Pro 8?

I can't seem to find somewhere to buy a fan or heat sink and fan unit for a Surface Pro 8. My fan in grinding. I do find them used on ebay, but I am concerned that a used unit will have same issue. If anyone knows where to buy, please let me know.

Is this a good question?

Hi @joshswearingen

If you don't get a better answer, perhaps search for an Authorized Microsoft Service provider in your location as there is a note above the parts list (see p.12 of the service manual below) that states in part that "FRUs are parts available for repair activity through an Authorized Service Provider ....."

Here's the service manual that may help.

The parts list shows that there are two THMs (thermal modules) available. One for the WiFi model and the other for the LTE model. As they have different part numbers presumably they're not the same, so ensure that you get the correct one for your model variant.

I couldn't find any suppliers online when searching for the part numbers shown in the manual. You may have better luck.

Here's the ifixit Microsoft Surface Pro 8 Repair video that may also help. The thermal module can be see being removed from 5:21 minutes into the video.
