James,
The hot shoe can be removed after taking out the spring plate. You can lift it up slightly from the front where the "X" mark is located and then slide it back. The hot shoe assembly is held on with four crosspoint screws.
As for the winding lever cover, the MX cover has two spanner holes for removal. The ME covers will not work on the MX as the threads are too short. The ME cover is just that-a cosmetic cover, but on the MX, the wind lever cover actually holds the wind lever to the shaft.
I do have many NOS parts for MX if you can't find a parts body.

Bill
