Exact Screen Cover Dimensions

[christo930]

I would like to buy replacement glass for my gp32 but I don't know where to get it. I was going to go to a hardware store and try to get it there. Does anyone know the exact dimensions of the glass including thickness and how to replace it? Preferably is english mesurements and not Metric.

Its 3 and 1/16 long. A little less than 2 and 3/8 wide. About a 1/16 thick.
Hope that helps

They don't use the metric system in the U.S...

Actually we do for many things like scientific/medical measurements, and auto industry.

Just don't use as much foe casual talk.

Here's a true story....

My dad went to a local hardware store (this is in the UK by the way). He asked for 6ft of 2" by 1" wood. The bloke snottily informed him that they now only sold wood in metric measures. My dad then did a bit of maths and changed his request to 2 metres of 5cm by 2.5cm wood.

Pause.

Puzzled look on the bloke's face.

Finally he says "Oh you mean 2 metres of 2 by 1!"

Madness. You American types may also be interested to hear that UK pubs can sell beer in pints and half-pints but it's illegal for them to sell soft drinks in pints and half pints - they have to be metric. However they can sell soft drinks in fluid ounces because apparently that's considered close enough to metric.

I guess I'll have to use mm, since a little less than 2 3/8 isn't a valid measurement. Could someone give me the metric mesurements?

Far as I know its

1) Get yourself a piece of glass 77.8mm x 59.8mm at 1mm thick if possible

A previous suggestion is just to remove the current plastic screen and bring it in. They can cut around it and it should be bang on
