I've noticed several people are using this set up. Here's some tricks we figured out with the help of Allan at UWdigital and Mark at Xtend-a-view.
Using the PT-10 and Oly in shallow water and high glare can effectively reduce the LCD to useless.
Cut a gasket out of foam, neo, whatever's handy to fit on the inside of the case between the LCD and the clear window. Completely around the LCD, you want it thick enough that closing the housing will hold it but not put any pressure on the LCD. That will block out the mirror effect of light inside the clear housing.
Attach a Xtend-aView with the rubber eye cup on the outside of the housing with velcro. That stops all the light around the LCD, like a hood, only better it magnifies. Now you have a big LCD to look at.
