Bob.
I have been down this route as I want to try the red lens bit on the cap of my N355 to see if it improves the daylight image, and didn`t get any response from members. I am now in the process of ordering one from Flir and have given them the part number, but they insist on a DP serial number. They have not asked for any payment, so it may be a freebe, If so, can you pm me your serial number and if it does not work on my N355 you can have it for just postage cost.

Great thanks Bob.
I will reply to their email today and keep you informed how it goes. Flir UK passed it onto the US so not sure how long it will be though.
Regards.

i just fancy having a fixed lens cover rather than this crap rubber thing on it, it just gets in the way and causes loads of issues when out shooting,
thank you

Sorry Bob, but I am a bit confused. You want another screw on lens cover/filter so you can remove the red lens and replace it with a clear lens, that can be used in darkness ?

Okay I see. I think it will reduce the night capability but I understand the desire to experiment, hence my wish to try the red lens on the cover of my N355 and improve the daylight image. Cut IR filters work to a degree and sharpen the definition, but not the colour.
I have just had a reply from Flir USA to say my details have been forwarded to the distribution warehouse for delivery, still no mention of a fee.
