To answer your questions: Yes, you need to insure that the logic board is compatible. Most carriers are usually covered by the universal logic board but some carriers have special needs so do your research.Yes, if you want to have TouchID.You’ll probably have to settle for a Chinese vendor. Check eBay and Aliexpress. Sometimes you can find someone local who is selling an iPhone that is heavily damaged (front and rear glass) but otherwise works well to scavenge the logic board. Careful as some devices have so much physical damage that they have lots of latent logic board issues.
