I recently picked up a MC462 and broke my IEC also (my fault, heavy power cord and leaned on it reaching for something). Heard the crack and was worried... more about how I was going to get this beast packaged back up, up the stairs and to a repair center 2 hours away.
Then I flipped the amp, popped off the bottom and realized - no problem I can do this myself.
Didn't want to wait - gorilla glued the tabs, waited 15 minutes, put it back on. No problems since.
I did order a couple new ones for like 15 bucks shipped and I will eventually get around to it, but why take a chance with the glass and moving it if I don't have to.
It is a bit of an interesting design choice.
