In the past, 1987 or so, I had this problem of foam rubber around the
little window coming off. I questioned Leica about replacement and was
told it was an expensive repair/replacement almost $100.00 each (four
bodies)and laughed. Also at the time they promised to do this in less
than six-weeks.  Called Minolta service department and was sent new
backs at $11.00 each. I installed leica preasure plates and never had
little peices of foam rubber or light leaks again.

Happy snaps,
Steven Alexander
