Viewfinder rubber protection - Sea&Sea housing

Hi all i just post a little fix for the rubber protection used on the Sea&Sea viewfinders (DX and MDX housing types).

In last weeks i lost underwater 2 times this rubber ring. Is a very usefull accessory because it protect our mask from the metallic viewfinder but i lost it too often. The reason is very simple: the glue used is not very strong and with salt water with some dives the protection will be very easy to loose.

So i prepared a little rubber ring maked from Mountain bike tunes. Is very easy to do, works very well and could be used also in case you loose the protection and you don't want to buy another one. In fact the rubber can be used with the original rubber ring mounted or simply alone.

You find more details and photos on my forum using this link.

I hope it could be interesting, especially for Sea&Sea owners ...

Bye

Good :-), in any case is would be a good idea to use this fix also to be sure and don't loose your new protection. I advise to use it with your new protection rubber, is better to don't use glue but to put the Sea&Sea protection normally and, after, to put over it the piece of tube. With this very little fix you will nerver loose it, a simple idea but it works!

Glad to write you
