Did you check with Fluke?  I have had to replace the displays on several of
my meters over the years and had no problems getting them from Fluke
directly as well as from my local distributor.  Last one was a year or so
ago - one of my Fluke 8050A displays died.  But I've gotten displays for
the 87, 12, 8023, probably others over the past 15 years.
