I just purchased one from Greg Weber at Weber Camera. webercamera.com It is not the same as the OEM eye piece but more of a rubber piece with no glass.
He is a good source for repairs up to a certain point and for many parts. I say up to a certain point because he told me the sad story of 7 pallets of parts and brand new cameras and lenses being sent to the city dump by Sony when they purchased Konica. This means that some parts are no longer available. He said that somewhere in a warehouse in Japan are a bunch of parts that he is trying to purchase. The issue is that the inventory liquidator with the parts can't figure out where they are.

Awesome—thank you so much for the tip!
It's too bad about the scarcity of parts... Luckily the Hexar seems pretty solidly built, aside from the shutter button issue.

You're welcome. Stay warm! I saw pictures of the abandoned cars on Lakeshore Dr. What a mess.
