Olympus XA CDS Cell

Hey,

Just wondered if anyone knows where I can get a replacement CDS cell for the oly xa? I bought one with a slow shutter (at any setting it will always stay open for around 3 seconds), so I stripped it down to find the problem.

Using the repair manual I found out that the CDS cell for the shutter is broken. Basically it is black and looks damaged, whereas the meters cell is white and clear.

I know I could get a replacement camera for about £50, but I would rather fix this one up!

Thanks!
