The best place to buy non branded generic accessories like stepping rings, body caps, lens caps, lens hoods etc is (this is where I buy a lot of stuff) http://stores.ebay.in/Photo-Video-Accessories The owner is Mona Channa (mona_chanana@yahoo.com), and at those prices even mailing to USA or Europe makes it affordable. They also make these things in Leica R or Leica M mounts, you just have to ask for a quote. It makes no sense to pay Leica prices.....For example, the last bunch I bought was 3 Nikon eye cups + 8 Leica R body/lens caps cost me around US$20 totally.
