Sorry if this is the wrong spot, but I didn't see a place for parts/repair. Has anyone ever found a place that will sell the color wheels from this projector?

Infocus of course does the typical "there are no user serviceable parts, send it in" and the only things I've found was places selling the whole optical engine for a whopping $1100.

Doing a search of the numbers from the color wheel yield no results except others looking for the same thing.

Sorry mate,
I've been hunting for months and still no luck.
If you could find someone in a service centre who was a bit sympatico you might get one , but Infocus would probably flip out if they caught on.
I've given up and ordered what might be the last legitimately imported In72 in Australia.

It's a shame. I ordered a X1 from ebay that claimed to have a new colorwheel installed, but after taking it apart and killing my working colorwheel in the process I found out the colorwheel the guy was sent belongs to the 4805. So now I have two non-working X1's and a bulb with less than 500 hours. Going to mean selling it all on ebay I guess.
