    Camera portholes, where to get one?

    So i've been seeing some older forum posts that talk about using port holes, but i can't really seem to find anywhere that sells them. The Avast ones are all out of stock. Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to go looking? p.s, here's a pic i took the other week, just because.
