iPhone 3GS complete case change

Seeking the wisdom of OcUKers..!

I have an iPhone 3GS 32gb. Now I haven't been treating this phone with respect for the past year, now it's in an absolute state. I want to completely change the case as I have large cracks all over my screen (surprisingly still works!), my earphone port doesn't work properly, and my silent switch on the side seems naff too as my phone keeps vibrating telling me it's going into and coming out of silent mode!

I've searched the bay and the web but anything that I do find seems to be from America.

If anyone could point me in the right direction this would be awesome!

Have a search of eBay using 'iphone 3gs housing'. A quick look threw up this: Item number: 280595143226 which may be what you're looking for and it's very cheap too

Is it not under warranty?

Cheers Diggsy, that's the kind of thing I was after, but something OEM or to the same standard.
And alas.. it's no longer under warranty

Do you have insurance on it?

Will Apple replace this for £150 (or whatever the rate is)?
