Gochugogi Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #3 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) Call Canon parts and they'll sell ya a new one. I scraped my 10D LCD cover & mounting tape and it cost about $15 with shipping back in the day. So it should be $25 or 30 now. Pull it off with a suction cup, lay down the double stick & press on the plastic cover. Took me about 15 minutes and most of that was checking for dust & prints on the LCD cover (so I didn't install with crap underneath). Oct 28, 2009 at 05:19 AM

anorphirith Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #6 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) i bought the part for 7$+7$ shipping anybody knows how to suck out the part ? Oct 28, 2009 at 05:39 PM

aaronlam Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #7 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) Use any suction cup of about the size. You can find them at the hardware store. You'll have to pull and the edges up... like popping a dent out of your car. But it will eventually give. Word of warning: Assuming you are talking about the back 3" LCD... the tape is not symmetrical. There is a top and bottom and they have different widths. Make sure it is aligned properly or the tape will overlap the window. Oct 28, 2009 at 06:38 PM

Gochugogi Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #11 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) They sell suction cups to hang crap on shower tiles, fish tanks, car window blinds, to attach toy animals on car windows, etc. They're all over the place... Oct 29, 2009 at 08:30 PM

paulhodson Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #12 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) But check that is what you do with the top window first - as everyone seems to be talking about the LCD at the back! Oct 29, 2009 at 08:56 PM

rji2goleez Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #13 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) Canon charges something like $360 to replace the LCD on the 5D2. I did something similar and I'm currently waiting for the camera to be returned. Man am I bummed. Oct 29, 2009 at 09:40 PM

docfrank Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #14 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) I replaced a cracked window on my 10D. I used a very sharp knife with some gentle prying and it came off. It is only attached by the adhesive. Oct 29, 2009 at 09:47 PM

Do you have a turkey baster with a bulb? Try detaching the bulb & using that? Shower squeegies have suction cups, too - but might be nasty to use and not the right size. Almost any hobby shop (craft stores, like Michael's) will have crafty things with suction cups, too. Look for those litte prisms you hang in windows, etc. - they're often attached with little suction cups. Oct 29, 2009 at 11:42 PM

anorphirith Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #19 · Canon 5D2 cracked plastic glass (settings glass on top) FIXED !!!!! I melted the plastic with a clip, let the clip cool off and pulled fast, then simply replaced the part. my 5D2 is good looking again Nov 05, 2009 at 02:06 AM
