Sharp GF 777 and VZ 2500 tape doors

[dubout]

I am looking for both tape doors for a GF 777 and also the tape door for a VZ 2500. I am not sure but I assume I would also need the springs etc. to make them work.

I've read that many Sharp tape doors are interchangeable and I am not too strict if they fit and the price is right. But matching the model would be a plus obviously.

While I'm at it, the VZ 2500 is also missing the tape type select slider on the far left.

Missing tape doors seem to be my thing lately ...

I am still looking for these parts. Maybe someone can name Sharp models with fitting tape doors so I have a wider range I can search for? Any help would be appreciated.

Try messaging Nikonfoo on this site. Had loads of GF stuff from him, based in Japan, top guy.

I am still looking for the tape doors. No one has them lying around?

PM me I have the tape for for the 2500. The inner and outer. And the inner I've upgraded the pivot pins to metal.
I have one tape for for a 777 as well. But just one.

Hey everybody, I am still looking for those tape doors. I was in contact with jronyc and he was most helpful but he doesn't visit the board anymore. That's at least what the 'Last seen' feature on here says.

So if you have tape doors for a Sharp VZ 2500 or Sharp GF 777, please get in touch.

Also saw on eBay that the seller Vintage_Boomboxes has a bunch of GF 777 parts but not the door. Check his other items, i thought I saw a similar sharp door that may work. I’ve bought parts from him in the past.

Thanks for the link! Unfortunately the seller of the VZ tape door doesn't ship to Germany. That must be the reason why it didn't pop up in my searches.

Sorry, so close.
