Glamour product photos!
Bit confused though - don't see screw holes for mounting?
Do we need to use some kind of sealant too?
Great deal, beats paying an extra $80 for an eyeofmine housing. I'm happy with the ones I got... but $80... ouch!:(

LB, if there's a demand I'll stock replacement housings.
fuzz, your photos are not too shabby either
Neither the Gopro curved lens nor the replacement lens have screw holes. It's the black plastic mounting ring that has holes. Replacement of the lens is as easy as undoing the screws, taking out the old lens and popping in the new. There is only one position in which the lens can go in so there's no worry of positioning it wrong. There is a rubber washer between the lens and the housing and that's what provides the seal, no sealant is necessary. When tightening the screws of the mounting plate I recommend to do it in a crisscross pattern to tighten it down evenly. I also recommend to try the housing at depth at least once without the camera having stuffed tissue paper into the housing to clearly indicate a leak if there is any. Pursuit Spearfishing Gear will not be responsible for water damage to cameras that had the lens installed improperly.
Housing and lens disassembled, with new lens on top of the camera.
Housing and new lens installed, original curved lens is lying next to the screwdriver.
Thanks for showing how the lens is installed. Seems easier than I thought it would be. Definitely seems best to have 2 different housings, add me onto the list of buying the spare housing.
Dan will you be offering just replacement housings? On your advice, I'd like to have one w a fisheye for on land and a seperate housing for underwater use so I dont risk damaging the screws with swapping the lenses
The Gopro housing is now available separately from Pursuit for $39 http://www.freedivingspearfish…opro-hd-hero-housing.html
That swimming pool test is some funny shite, where's the Florida babe's .;)
Was that Harry the horse-neck Rizzio from Jersey swimming in the left lane ?
Seriously Dan in images look good with the flat lens.
Cheers, Don
