If you mean the markings on the glass then there are no spares that I have found except if you can find a good one. Problem seems to be that in production they stuck a piece of sellotape to the back of the glass to stop it getting scratched as the glass was fitted to the holding clamps and over the years this dried up and pulled the printing off the glass. I did try to reproduce this print but have not yet been successful.

That's what I thought, so I give this one a miss, thanks for your input, much appreciated Vidjoman.
