Aqualung i550 (& i550c) part has a strong possibility of being an exact replacement. Same OEM, and clearly made from the same basic design, but no guarantee they are using the same molds. I heard the battery compartment covers are different than the Aeris versions, but then that is a separate module and not a boot that is less likely to have had a revision.
You could also do a hose mount compass, but that may not mesh with the ergonomics of your computer's hose routing.
Which leaves wrist, or retractor as the final analog options.

I think @JD342 is correct. I have two Aeris AIs that I could not find Aeris OEM battery hatch cover replacements because the coin slots on both broke. I took a good look at the Aqualung i550, thinking I might have to replace both computers for lack of a hatch cover, and the Aqualung i550 looked extremely similar. As it turned out, based on a tip from one of the Pelagic Pressure Systems tech guys, I was able to use the i550 hatch covers by heating them slightly in a low temp oven. So I would be surprised if the boot would not also work. Suggest you call PPS and ask for one of their tech experts to see what they say. Please keep us posted as I could see me needing one in the future.
