I've already spoken to Kino a number of times. They don't sell direct, so they gave me the name of 5-6 local vendors they work with here in LA. I contacted the vendors, only to find out Kino won't sell the part to the vendors either. Come on! So, now I'm trying the secondary market.... Anyone have any ideas?

So I'm trying to sources a super specific Kino part, but I'm having a devil of a time. Kino themselves aren't being super helpful, and I can't buy it from any vendor. What I’m looking for is a backplate that goes on the back of Kinos. Not the thing that attaches to a c-stand and has a the small ball head, but the flat metal plate that’s attached to the backside of the light that the rotating lock mechanism goes into. I hope that make sense. It's a tough piece to describe, which is part of the problem. Basically, this: http://www.kayelites.com/images/Products/KinoFlo/newkino4x4_4.jpg If anyone has any ideas where I can buy this piece, I'd be eternally grateful. Alternatively, if any of you out there are looking to get rid of a Kino shell that's in some state of disrepair, I'd be happy to buy it off of you and scavenge what I need. Thanks for any help you guys can give me! -Drew
