Godox V1S V860III-S Hot Shoe Replacement Mount Foot, Speedlite Flash Repair Parts for Godox V1-S & V860III S Flash (Sony Version) Hotshoe Replacement (Upgrade Metal Version)

It works perfectly!! Easy to install, well built and fits perfectly on my Sony V1S. Highly recommended.

When I adjusted the aim of my Godox V860iii speedlite, the whole unit just snapped off my camera. I thought, "great, there's another $200 I'll have to spend!" When I saw the hotshoe foot is what broke, I searched for a replacement part and was happy to see they were available. This one was very easy to install, just had to take out the 4 screws, pull up the old assembly, and carefully pull out the ribbon cable. Installing the new ribbon cable was the toughest part since it's so small grasping it is tough. Once it was started in the slot, I just used my precision screwdriver and put some pressure on the "t" portion of the cable, alternating on each side of the "t" until the cable was fully seated. 4 screws back in and I was able to test. The flash works! Easy. I don't know that this foot is any stronger than the original, but I know I'm back to using my flash for now.

Perfect. easy to install and exactly what i need to ensure this problem never happens agian.

I was about to toss out my flash when I stumbled upon this replacement part, and I'm really glad I did! Initially, I was a bit skeptical about whether this part would actually fix my broken mount foot, but after just 5 minutes of fiddling, I managed to salvage my flash. The original mount design is definitely flawed—four tiny screws and four plastic studs hold up the entire flash body, which seems like a recipe for disaster. Unfortunately, my fears came true during a wedding when the flash split in half. To replace the mount, you’ll need a T5 Torx screwdriver. The new shoe is all metal, which is a significant upgrade. I can't see how the two halves of the mount are attached. However, it does feel sturdier than the original, and I’m hopeful it will hold up better in the field. Overall, if you’re dealing with a broken flash mount, this replacement part is a great fix! I hope you found this helpful!

Works better than the original.

Had to watch a video to know the correct placement but it took all of 5 min to replace.

Amazed that this was really easy to install.. mini screwdriver and proper tweezers is all you need.

Purchased to fix what I thought was a faulty flash. I had no other accessories to diagnose if my Sony camera was the issue. Turns out my Sony hotshoe IS the issue. BUT this replacement was needed anyways as a plastic bit above the prongs broke off just two days ago on the flash and that's an issue. For $20 it saved me from dropping at least $120 bucks on another used or new flash, and I do love this flash. Product looks exactly as pictured, took about 2 minutes to install including the screws. It came with a plastic piece protecting the prongs which I also highly recommend you put on your camera's hotshoe as well, or buy replacements if you lost yours like mine.
