Does anyone know where I can buy an auxiliary viewfinder for a Yashica Electro 35 GSN camera? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Just the viewfinder? Usually it's packaged with the auxiliary lenses. I might have one, but it'll take some looking. If I can find it, it might come with the lenses though, because I don't need them taking up space here either.
Just so you know though, I really bought into the wide angle aux. lens for the GSN and used it A LOT for a while. Alas...too many shows with rowdy people and rowdy music took their toll. The interesting thing was the GSN seemed to come apart on the lens barrel. The only thing I could figure was the aux. lens put too much flex on the cheap pot metal of the lens barrel. If you're gonna use it a lot, plan on getting more GSNs. On the other side of things, it doesn't make the lens that much wider.
Good luck on your RF journey though, wherever it may lead you.

I just sold one of these last week, people like to use them on Bessas and old Barnack Leicas without built in finders. I am finding many tele wide kits minus the finders now, but maybe I'll come across one over the next couple weeks.
