While in Honduras, I lost the diffusor plate for my Canon housing. It is a WP-DC7 housing. I have been using a coffee filter, inside the camera, and it works OK, but not the same. I took great photos, without a strobe last year in BC, and I am heading up there in 2 weeks and want to replace that part before I go.
I could just buy a strobe, but I have a Sea & Sea DX-2G with the sport package on my Christmas list this year, but it isn't in the cards before mid-Dec.
Anyone have any ideas on where to find that diffusor? I have tried to find the replacement piece, but apparently, none of the on-line camera stores sell just the diffusor. I don't want to replace the whole housing; especially since it works fine and I am getting a new camera soon anyway.
Suggestions?

Tap plastics sells some 1/8" plastic sheet that is frosted that makes a really nice diffuser if you can's source one.
