Viewfinder for ETX 105

Hi all,
I have an ETX 105 and the viewfinder and mount have broken off the telescope. I have bought a Red dot finder but it doesnt' fit my telescope without permanent modifiction. Is there any one in Sydney/Canberra or Southern Highlands area that can fit a better viewfinder or fix my mount on my ETX 105.
Thanks Christian Antoniak

View finders breaking off ETXs arfe quite common. I take it that the screw has pulled through the plastic mount for the view finder?

I had that happen to our ETX125 with the red dot finder version. A couple of thin washers under the screw head fixed it.
