I was wondering if anyone knows how to replace the outer LCD on a 7D?
Is it something that I can do myself or would I need to send it to canon?
I would like to get this fixed ASAP so that I can sell it and pick up a 6d while they're on sale.

Thanks.

I got my glass cover from this place. This was for my 60D.

This thread indicates it may be DIY but still requires some care.

Thanks for the help. I was able to figure it out. I just had to heat up the outer LCD with a blow dryer and it pealed right off.
