I have no problem getting Infocus X2/X3 parts. Of course, it helps that I am a service tech.(independent) I've replaced a lot of color wheels and light tunnels. The color wheels are about $150 and the light tunnels are about $50. Plus shipping of course.
Currently, I am out of these but I will be placing an order for more later this week.
Oh, Color Wheels don't fade. They do need to be cleaned periodically. The buildup on them will reduce your light output and contrast.

Hello - I'm looking for a light tunnel for my infocus x2. Still have them?
I came across this forum as I was googling a color wheel for my infocus x2. (1st) where can i buy one, and (2nd) are there instructions on how to install it? My projector is disassembled and read to be worked on, but i havent had experience with projectors -- is it compariable to installing parts in computers?
I have recently purchased an XBOX 360 Elilte with HMDI out which came with an HDMI cable. I want to connect this to my Infocus X2, specs can be found here:
http://www.projectorcentral.com/InFocus-X2.htm
Notice my projector says it will do HD:
HDTV: 720p, 1080i
However looking at the user manual page 8 it says "If you are connecting the projector to HDTV sources, the projector’s M1 computer connector, labeled Computer In, should be used. Keep in mind that
HDTV and progressive sources should only be handled through the projector’s computer connector. You can also use an M1 to Component adapter (available
as an optional accessory) to connect a progressive source’s component connectors to the projector."
However this mentions nothing about HDMI. Will an HDMI to M1 connector work in High Definition??
I've read in order for this to work the projector must support HDCP however I can find nothing about HDCP in the user's manual and there are conflicting reports as to whether or not the projector supports it on the Internet.
In short - Will this work or not?
Please help!
Thanks all.

I've seen on a number of forums that you sell replacement X2 light tunnels. I just acquired in a batch of surplus (I own a hardware repair/refurb/surplus center) two dozen X2 projectors, many of which are exhibiting the yellow banding that is symptomatic of a bad light tunnel. I'd like to purchase a bulk lot (probably at least ten pieces) of light tunnels off of you. Can you contact me for pricing?
