Looking to buy the above part, if anyone can help with one or an alternative that'd be much appreciated!
Thanks
Chris

If you mean the disk that is attached to the caseback, I've seen generic ones for sale on eBay.

Brilliant, thanks! I'll give one of those a go, they're only cheap so not the end of the world if they don't work  |

I used some off eBay for an H558 and after I figured out how to get it to stick it worked perfectly. I initially tried heating the case back and then positioning the disk but that didn’t work. Disk didn’t stick firmly enough. I then tried heating the disk with a heat gun but I didn’t like using that soI tried hitting the disk with a quick flame from a lighter to see if that would melt the heat sensitive glue. Sure enough that worked. I took the second one I bought and did the same thing and it stuck right in place. Perfect! |

I wasn't sure how to fix them but i've got plenty of Shellac which I was going to use. I bought a pack of 10 and it was just over £1 so not the end of the world if they don't work! Could you send a link to the ones you bought just in case so I can try those as well? Cheers Chris |

Hey Chris. It was maybe 2 years ago. I’ll see if I can find the old listing.

Hi, Update! Tried the generic ones from eBay and they work! And meanoldmanning i tried your heating method and that works fantastically too. Thanks for the help, the H601 chimes again! Best wishes Chris |
