Picked up a preowned sample but having no luck finding the original metal cap for the 35mm F2.4 Summarit, despite lens should be current?

Is there another lens that comes with same sized metal cap?

Thanks.

I think the metal cap is for the hood. If you'll accept a non-Leica item, it should be easy to find a generic solution.

Ah ok so the metal cap is to fit over the hood, not the lens. 
 

I checked the cap for the earlier version F2.5 and it definitely was too wide for the lens. As I don’t have the hood, don’t know if the earlier version would fit once I get the hood?

14475 is a push-on metal lens cap initially made for 75/2.5 (11645) and 90/2.5 (11646) Leica M lenses. Can fit also 28/2 (11672), 35/2.4 (11671), 50/2.4 (11680), 75/2.4 (11682) & 90/2.4 (11684) Leica M lenses AFAIK.

I use the 35mm 2.4 summarit metal lens cap for my 35mm APO. I guess that means that the 35mm APO metal lens cap should fit as well!

Instead of the angry rant, you could have sent them a friendly email asking about the two items… usually they can refer you to a reseller in your country who can receive replacement parts or send the parts to you themselves. Sometimes even for free. 
I never heard of replacement parts of any company being available in third party shops… sometimes shops have them sometimes not.

Since you didn’t reply in the thread anymore I assume it got resolved for you?

Sorry, very late to this conversation. Are you using the Summarit cap on your 35 APO with the hood or without the hood?  Thx.
