Andrea from Solms replied to me very promptly.  Thank you for that  
suggestion, George.  Ms. Frankl informed that the repair could be made  
in Germany, but perhaps it could be repaired by one of their agents in  
Japan too.  So I might end up sending it to a Leica gent in Japan.   
Unfortunately, the sensor cover glass cannot be replaced alone, and it  
is replaced together with the sensor as standard.  The cost for that  
is around 1,200 Euros.

I replied to Ms. Frankl's e-mail, asking if Leica could perhaps take  
my M8 in part-exchange for a refurbished M8 or M8.2, considering that  
the repair cost is quite close to the price of used M8s.  I think if  
they cannot do that, then I will ask her for the addresses of agents  
in Japan.
