I was successful in removing the fungus from my canon 35-80 III lens. However (and there's always a however), i bent the brush that wipes the contact strips inside the lens. It has been my experience with these types of parts that you can never get them back in the right position, and it is usually best you buy another one. Does anyone have an idea where and how much.

You might try here....I was able to get parts for my speedlight and camera here.

Thanks, a local pawn shop has one for $20. It was a free be so I won't lose much if I can't get the part.

Good deal, with no work involved. Try ebay for parts or non-working lenses.
