or you could save yourself the trouble and get the M3.

I'm adding an M2 bezel to my C3 for a poor man's M3, or M2.9. The M3 is right on the other side of my "sensible" price point.

blikbok: after you do that, add an extra O-ring on the tailcap end of the C3 body for added water-resistance like the M3 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Not to get off subject here but just for kicks I took my D3 with a tubo head and added a A-19 plus a MN60 bulb puts out 225 lumens for 1 HR only cost the price of the bulb I had the other stuff laying around a poor mans version of the M4 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif you could do the same with a 6V light and 2 A-19 + turbohead I guess. (Lots of lumens good run time excellent beam and throw)

what's the easiest way to get ahold of the proper size O-ring?

The A19 fits 6P, D2, Z2, 6Z, C2, M2 and G2 (somewhat).

Does anyone have photos of these different combinations?
Which one 'looks' the best?

6P-BK and D2 look the most natural (basically becoming a 9P & D3)

C2/M2/Z2 loose the ability to use the CombatGrip. The CombatGrips is a useful and important feature in my opinion. They also look strange even when not mixing BK with HA.

The G2 + A19 (old) looks good. The Yellow G2 (G2-YL) look kinda wasp-like - especailly with a black M2 bezel on it!

when using this extension (A19), do I still need to get the battery spacer that everyone was using with the G2's?

To use as a three battery light? No.

I did the same thing using a SRTH turbo head. This combo fits into a RipOffs Stinger holster if you cut a hole in the bottom to accommodate the lower 1/8" of the light + tailbutton.

A D3/SRTH fits perfectly (sans hole) in that same holster.

Sounds strange but looks good.
