Hi Bud,

I am referring to the Solms Leica via the local agent.  They will only do
it for M3s apparently since they are out of the original finder.

Lee,
Which Leica are you talking about?
I asked Leica in New Jersey if they would install the M6J viewfinder in an
M6
and they said they were prohibited from doing it because it would reduce
the
value of M6J's.
