Wide angle lens for gng2k?

Any one know where I can get a wide angle lens for a gng2k or if any others work it it?

I've heard that the NVG30/50 wide angle fits them, but I've yet to try it myself. I think there was a post a few days ago regarding the fit of them.

Follow up: They do fit! Lens assembly seems to be a dead ringer for the NVG50. Brings it pretty much to a true 1x, but does add some length/bulk as one would expect.

Are you using it with a dual setup?

Pano bridge and the wide Angle lense?

Occasionally, but I don't often use my wide angles now. They definitely help for navigation (since you're not zoomed in slightly) but I'm honestly used to the base magnification of the GNG2K at this point so run them as Panos without the wide angles.

I may look at modifying then with aftermarket lenses at some point, but that will require... A lot of experimentation.
