Recently cracked the glass covering the LCD screen. Canon Canada wants a flat rate of $300 to replace the glass. Looking for less expensive alternatives.
Anyone ever replaced this themselves?
Any aftermarket solutions?
TIA

Back LCD cover is part number CB3-1417 "Window, TFT" Gasket is part number CB3-1416 "Tape, TFT doubleside" they're avail from Canon, or third party suppliers e.g. link Fabulous post. I can't believe Canon is charging $300 for replacing that.

I spent probably two hours searching all over the internet to try to find info on this, no luck.
