I have a Hitachi 53SWX01W and i need a green tube for it. I cant find them anywhere, even the hitachi site. Anybody know where?

The User Manual for the TV states "There are no user serviceable parts inside the television." The manual doesn't list internal part numbers and I'd bet calling Hitachi wouldn't get you a part number, either.

Nice, eh?

Is this the correct part?

If not, do you have a part number from the original tube?

Actually i found it for $287 ha ha(not to funny) But what i need is actually the green lens and the goo that is behind it, right now i have RO water in there, but it doesnt look as good.
Speaker_King

UH....no...
You might want to try a TV repair shop.

haha nvm, i found what it is, and how to clean it and stuff. Its not on ebay tho.

You can find it on Ebay by searching for "tv coolant". You will need the better part of a 16 oz. bottle per tube.
