Or just append a "R" or "S" for Replacement or Service, i.e. 100001R or
100001-S. I can't say that the need is there for bottom plates like there is
for battery covers and MD caps... how many of us have ever lost a bottom
plate??? I have a few cameras without MD caps, though... and a few mangled
battery covers... I appreciate that this guy is making them again, and I
suspect his prices aren't much higher than Olympus would have charged back
in the days they were available.
