Hi there,

I have just purchased a second hand C8 (black model built late 80's). Everything looked fine unitl I went to collaminate it.
I discovered that the housing for the secondary mirror was loose and it just spun. It has come unglued.
Has anyone come across this before and knows of an easy way to re-glue it??

Thanks in advance.
