Bill,

I had it installed by a local Rollei repair person here in Zurich in connection
with a CLA (I had just purchased the Rolleiflex a couple of months earlier). From
the reading I have done, it is a lot easier to install it yourself on a 2.8F than
on a 3.5E. Best thing to do is to call Bill Maxwell and ask him: 404 244-0095. Be
prepared for a long conversation, Bill likes to talk! And if you get his
answering machine, just leave a message, he WILL call you back. Sometimes I think
he spent his profit margin on the screen he sold me on phone calls to me in
Switzerland...
