Yes ... Proline Distribution, Inc P.O. Box 686 Kentfield, CA 94914 (415) 461-2227 ... made just about *everything* which Apple forgot (or didn't want to) make for the 8600/9600 and the Beige MT, including the generic CD-ROM, CD-R/W, DVD-ROM-R/W bezel (and shield) you describe. Alas, Proline Distribution liquidated its inventory of Beige MT stuff in about June of 2002, with everything *except* the bezel you desire being liquidated for about ten cents on the dollar. Sometimes the Proline stuff shows up on e-bone, usually being sold by an individual in Oregon. >> Or what can I use to cut the blank face plate? >> A Zip drive bezel, rough cut using a Zona� "razor saw" and smoothed using a Simonds� "laminate file" is one quick-and-dirty solution that looks pretty professional ... unless you look *very* closely. That's what I'm using on my Yamaha SCSI CD-R/W drives, the ones with the trapezoidally-shaped drawer fronts, which won't pass through *any* bezel I am aware of. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
