Marantz 2238B Issue

Any updates on that lamp housing?

I have nothing but excuses. There's so much I dislike about this particular housing. The clips and tabs that extend beyond the front plane, the delicate clips that affix the lamp board, the ultra-thin walls in places that can't get thicker without interference. Ugh. I'll dust off the latest prototype I made and see what's left. I'm going to need some beta testers with this one.

Aaron,that is a tough one.
It is also in the 2252B and 2265B so if you need a donor unit to try it in let me know.

Any new info on the housing? Dont know how to tag folks on my phone. Also, if anyone has a stock 2238b clean faceplate let me know. Someone etched a number on mine and it really looks like crap.

Was there ever any success with a replacement housing? I just picked up a 2330B and the housing is in rough condition. Apparently somebody was trying to change the fuse lamps before me. They left the two middle lamps out completely, but broke 3 of the 4 tabs in the process.
