[LRflex] Re: R9/DMR erratic metering

Yep, meter cell is going out; both of my R8s have had to have their cells 
replaced this year :(
Kindermann Canada repaired both of'em [they do good work], and Slobodan is 
correct, 300+ bucks.
The meter cell is part of the mirror box assembly and the whole shebang has 
to be replaced.
You might check Kindermann, I don't personally know what their rush service 
is like.
