Bruce Forat used to build drum machines in the 80's and is responsible for the F9000 and F16 and a ton of other stuff. He now mostly mods machines or repairs them and custom paint jobs. I helped him do sysex dumps on his Prophet 10 till 5 in the morning a few weeks ago and then had to drive home 2.5 hours. Not your average friday night!
Let us know how it goes. I want to replace one of my EII's display too. There is room for improvement there I think.

According to the EPR site, the EII display is the same as the SP12 and original grey cased SP1200, is that what you have? I've heard the 'Forat' name bounced about a few times now, where or how is he contactable?
