Touch panel for 17" LCD

Hey guys, I have an old 17" Laptop with an awesome screen and good speakers, but it's WAY too slow for any of the production work I do, and a little too damaged to be worth anything.

So I was thinking about turning it into a stationary tablet computer for the kitchen. The type on a stand with nothing but a touchscreen.

Problem is, I can't find any 17" touch overlays :( It's wide screen, 36,9x23,2mm

Does anyone know where I can find one? Would be cool if it's a complete kit with USB output.
It can be an external overlay or just the components, and it doesn't have to match 100%, a few mm off doesn't matter.
