Prusa Mini parts for upgrading a non-prusa printer?

I have an old Bukito printer ( http://bukito3d.com/ ) back from their original kickstarter circa 2013. It's a workhorse of a machine, still running with only minor maintenance here and there, but I'd like to give it an upgrade it to use the heated bed and controller/screen of the Mini.

I fully understand it's not a drop in replacement and would require some real work to adapt the bed and alter the firmware to suit, but I'm looking forward to that challenge.

How long would it be, before we could expect to find Prusa mini spare-parts for order?

I don't think the Mini spares are up on the website site, and wont appear before the first units ship. However I haven't order one (yet), so maybe I just can't see them.

Not sure if your comment is 100% accurate though Joan as I can see mk2 spares, but I can't see SL1 spares, and I only have a mk3.
