I had cracked the pyrex lens on my SF8AX over a year ago (dropped on concrete pavement). I did not want to send it in to get it fixed, so let it go for a while. Then, I inadvertently left my old 6P on while inside the leather holster of my duty belt, and the lexan lens "bubbled". I called SF customer service, and explained the situation. I expected to have to send the lights in to get them repaired. The CS person, however, told me they would get replacements out shortly. About 3 weeks later (I live in Hawaii), I got both replacement lens in the mail.
Replacement was rather simple for my two lights, and the packages come with instructions. I don't know about replacement/return policies for the M6, but my experience with SF CS has been rather positive. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
