I just checked out Rab's guide and i presume if its just the housing i want to change i'll only have to do the first part of the guide(prize open the back and front cover then replace it with the new one)???

Also who's the best on ebay to buy off?
I've heard of cnn.cn but i'm going to go with ebay cos its easier for me.

Thanks for your help

ps Is there a guide on howardforums for just changing the housing/cover?

What makes the me worried about these kinds of swaps is breaking the tabs of the housing as they could be pretty tight (this is where the plastic pry tool comes into play).

and the link to ebay the sticker looked like it wasn't a sticker(on the black one) it looks like its printed on but other ones u can see it so it should be fine... another thing is pictures may not look exactly like product ebay is always an risk either good/bad in quality while those sites listed above ppl have experience and are usually good its ur choice tho...
