Reticle Eyepiece

I have a Meade 9mm Plossl illuminated Reticle Eyepiece, the crosshairs are not in the center of the lens anymore,(couln't figure out why my polar alignments were off, duh)is there any eay way to get it back exactly in the center? I tried just looking through the eyepiece and adjusting but that's a pretty subjective alignment.

I need to purchase a dew shield for my 10" Meade LX200, I like the looks of the Kendrick heated strap. Anyone using this, or are there other heated dew shield supplier worth looking into? Do you think the heated straps are better than a conventional dew shield, say the Meade.

Thank You
