Anybody knows where I can get the black vinyl (plastic?) rear port covers for Ikelite's DSLR ports? I've been looking at Adorama and BHPhoto and it seems they are not selling the protection covers anymore.
Thanks a lot!

We discontinued the use of these rear port caps. They reacted with the plastic in our standard ports and caused cracking around the sealing surface.

I have been using Flat Port front covers on some of my rear ports. They seem to work fine.

Ooops! That means I should get rid of all these vinyl covers to prevent my ports to crack? Good to know! I'll order somer neoprene covers as Bill is suggesting.
Thanks for your answers!

I use a plastic sandwich bag over the back and secure it with a rubber band.
