looks like it can be easily made .. I got a bunch of extra doors that came with my GoPro. Might have to try gluing a piece of styrofoam to it.

+1 .... would probably opt for closed cell foam or neoprene as styrofoam tends to ding/chip too easily.

I was thinkin maybe install a small co2 canister inside the lcd door and attach two (one on each side) similarly small air bags to the housing. Use the button on the side of the lcd screen to activate the co2 canister, and POOF, a tiny emergency flotation device for my gopro. :crazy:
