: I have a few questions about foam, specifically the foam that dampens the
: mirror in the mirror cage:
:
: 1) Is there a good place to buy this foam for the "do it yourselfer?"

Look for the light baffles. You needs the thinnest ones. The kit with 5
sheets in different thicknesses is a good choice.

: 2) Is it easy to put in?

Fairly. You need steady hands.

: 3) What is the best solution to rid the camera of the old foam residue?

Pure alcohol.

: 4) Can I get foam for the camera back at the same place?

Even better yet - you can use the same stuff.
