I found the hex thanks to this guy:

How do you get the raw transaction in Hex format, from a transaction that is unconfirmed, and I didn't make, but appears on http://blockchain.info in a format that allows it to be passed into http://blockchain.info/pushtx when it is dropped from all miners memory pools.

Subject line says "from nodes", is that a requirement? blockchain.info returns the raw transaction if you append '?format=hex' to the URL of a transaction, e.g.:

https://blockchain.info/tx/9021b49d445c719106c95d561b9c3fac7bcb3650db67684a9226cd7fa1e1c1a0?format=hex

I have gone into my Trezor and tried to sign the receiving transaction, but do not understand it.  This is a really cool tool and I think it's going to take a little bit of time to figure out exactly how to use it.  

I signed the the tx with my signature it spit out and tx says NULL.  I assume that means I did something wrong.  Good opportunity to learn more about bitcoin programming.  This can be an extremely useful tool as sometimes fees go up expodentially very fast.
