Like seriously, enough is enough! Give it a new EVF even if you have to make the body slightly bigger (though I'm sure you don't have too). Keep it tiltable and make it non-16:9.

Adding a bigger, GX8 class EVF to a GX7 makes it a GX8. There's no way around it.

Sorry for the crappy image, but this is how it looks. The GX8 is NOT that much bigger than a GX7. 10mm (.5") wider. 7mm (.375") taller. That's it.

A bigger EVF makes a GX7 a GX8.

If the monitors align, the GX7 actually has a slightly wider grip on the right side.
