This is the best priced module i could find that included the logic board connector. $6 USD

I was looking around and it really doesn't matter where they come from all the modules seem to be Bluetooth 2.0 whether its from powerbook or mackbook pro. The newer specification 2.1 seems to all be airport/bluetooth combo cards that are not compatible.
The above module does not come with an antenna, but I figure I wont need the antenna because my mini pci-e to pci-e adapter for my airport has 3 antennae and the airport only uses two of them. This way I am forced to mount in internally, but that's not such a big deal for me. It is probably the better way to go. The only downside to this is i cant use a USB hub, something i have spares of for the voltage regulation. However, less clutter is always nice.
