My gfriend's lost the sync cable to her digital elph!!! I may just have to use film and scan it this weekend.

I've started the write up already, but don't want to post without any images. Those tabs have to come up in a certain way using certain tools to prevent breakage. Those things front lenses are soooo fragile, and it didn't seem to help they were heated or anything.

Anyways, things are just best explained using pictures. Stay tuned guys...

Just in case I wasn't clear: You're going to pry the flexible gray plastic up to allow the clear plastic tabs to just slide out.

No preheating to 250 degrees, no oven, no wetsanding or clearcoating. I need to get hold of a digital camera to write up a walkthrough.

Here's a link to my walkthrough. Check it out.
