CD Drive Bezel

Post by Vander »

Does anyone know where I can find an aluminum bezel for a CD drive? Or even better, does anyone know of a decent CD (perhaps DVD) burner that comes with an aluminum bezel?

Yesterday I bought what looked like a replacement bezel that matched the aluminum front panel of my new case, but when I opened it up, I noticed that you attach it to the current bezel with double sided tape. I thought that was a little cheezy. Anyways, I installed it. Unfortunately, the mounting holes for my CD drive doesn't take into account a 3 layered bezel, so it sticks out and looks like ★■◆●. I can easily fix the mounting holes with my trusty dremel, but I'm not all that happy with a taped on bezel.

Stress? Got any tips?

I couldn't find one that wasn't "stick on," which is what I have now. Thanks, though.

as an actual bevel replacement, or a something that goes onto the case?
