Tightening a T2i Hot Shoe at DVinfo.net

The Hot Shoe on my T2i has become fairly loose. I searched google, and found instructions for a 20d, but it looks like the 20d hot shoe is different. Can anyone walk me through how to tighten the hotshoe?

Send it to Canon. Should still be under warranty.

I wouldn't "monkey" with it myself.

The T2i has the same design as all the other EOS camerasI've had, including the 20D. Directions here:
