AC160 LCD protection replacement

[krick]

Hi there,

I am looking for replacing the LCD plastic protection of an AC160. The LCD woprks perfectly, but the glass (plastic) that is in front of it as a protection is slightly scratched or "stained". It's not terrible but I would love to be able to change it myself, it seems pretty straight forward to change once you get the part.

I wrote to Panasonic support and they want me to send the whole camera to a center, pay for shipping... And I don't think this is worth it. Especially because the piece itsef is probably under $10.

Any idea where I could find that part?





Thank you.

I think you are looking for a panasonic part: VKW3478, but please verify before ordering. If this is the part you are looking for then there appear to be various suppliers...

Hope this helps...

Thanks, it looks like it. Dman, that's expensive for a little plastic window part. I may not change it then...

Thanks, mrveronn! How did you figure this out by the way?

Also, I am looking for a tiny screw replacement on the camera, the one next to the XLR input 2 on top left ( there are different sizes in that same area and they look almost similar so this is tricky). Any idea whe I could find those?

Thank you
