I was lucky enough to get sherrykrauter.com, in the U.S., to install the MP viewfinder conversion kit in my M6 (classic) and M7 (bought in 2002). I've read that the M6 TTL had a reputation for the worst of the viewfinder flare problems. Any M7 vintage offered an improvement over it, even my pre-MP version. The cost might seem stiff, but in low light, the contrast improvement alone, not to mention reduction of flare problem, could make your M6 TTL a real joy to use.

Congratulations on getting a camera whose shutter dial turns in the correct direction! [ducks]
