[c5diver]

anybody know where i can find a pair of the yellow covers in the US? looks like a nice touch to make a good octo. scubapro makes them, but i can only find uk dealers with them..

We picked some up at Ocean Divers at mm 105 in Key Largo but have also seen them at Southern Indiana Scuba in Bloomington, IN.

Blue, Red & Pink are the standard color kit accessory colors in the US.

I got a yelow one but don't know how to change it Any idea?

Easy. Use a very small straight edge screw driver to get the plastic retaining pin out( on the air inlet side). Unscrew the the face plate & push the rubber purge out of the face plate & replace with the new one. Then screw the face plate back on. You'll have to make sure the retaining pin holes match up to get the pin back in.

if you look at the arrows on the scubapro "S" on the purge cover they point down. then the hole for the lock pin lines up. so then it goes face plate, purge cover, thrust washer, keyed washer(flat side up the keys have an tapered edge on one side), diaphram.

Not win yet. I can remove the pin but nothing else. I am affraid to broke something after removing the pin.

I use a piece of something (actually a recycled electronics printed circuit made of epoxy, but it can be anything), about the size of a ruler, measure the distance between 2 openings of the cover, drill 2 holes separated by that distance, screw 2 M3x15 (3mm by 15mm) screws and nuts, and use this as a high-tech custom made precision tool to open the cover.
