It is even easier than that, just add this to your install:

    <WixVariable Id="WixUIBannerBmp" Value="mybannrbmp.bmp" />
    <WixVariable Id="WixUIDialogBmp" Value="mydlgbmp.bmp" />

I solved my problem. I never actually figured out how to get rid of the
original WelcomeDlg, but I found I didn't need to replace it after all. 

Since all I was doing was trying to replace the bitmap images in the
dialogs, I just copied Common.wxs to my directory, renamed it to
something like MyCommon.wxs (and renamed the fragment). Specified the
paths to my new images, told my code to use this common instead, and I
was all set. 

Now it uses the standard dialogs, but with different images. Nice!

Thanks for all your help!
