I was served by Donald at Sony Service Centre. He gave me this details for those who need to find spare parts. Also, if you have the spare part list like the one i posted with spare parts numbers, it will make their job easier. Just tell them the part number, they do a search for you, so you do not need to go down to SSC to enquire. If they have, you go down to make your order and do the payment. If don't have any, you save a trip down.

For those who wants to get spare parts from Sony, you may contact them thru the following steps to enquire.

If any of you need the spare part list for 7D, give me you email address and I will send it to you. I got this list from one of the guys in CS too. Can't remember who he is though.
Not sure if you can get from SSC though, but can try ask them if they can give you a soft copy of the spare parts of your Minolta camera model.
