Replacement eyeguards

[bomberbaz]

Where can I get my hand on replacement eyeguards anyone. I have looked online but cannot find a UK dealer of such.

They are for my 2" Nikons and need to be 48mm fitting. The current ones are the low profile ones that came with the EP's and since changing dobs I don't get on with them quite the same as I did before.

Sorry to raise an old thread but I'm finding it very hard to source replacement eyeguards for my 15mm and 24mm Panoptics. Anyone got any ideas?

Have you tried contacting Tele Vue in NY by phone?  I've read they can supply replacement caps, so they might also do eyeguards.

I will do but the thought of asking anyone to import anything into the UK at the moment...I'll see what they say!

I would not be surprised if Televue sent them for free.

Oh! I’ll give Al a call in the morning and charm them.

You won't pay a tariff on 2 small pieces of rubber.

No, it’s not the cost that scares me anyway. It’s taken 8 weeks and counting for a mount to get to me for Germany. It just gets on my nerves how stupid things have become in that sense although I guess nothing has changed from the point of view of US imports. Just me being irritable!

Bought mine off that well known auction site for my 26mm Celestron Plossl’s,  there’s lots of different sizes that might suit just a question of going through the listings.

I hadn't actually thought of eBay for this - thank you!

The ones I bought off the bay are good enough but they are not Televue or OEM quality, if you are after like for like replacements it might be worth contacting TV as @Louis D says 🤔

I can recommend these (you can buy singles or bino mode). Block out all surrounding light.
