Wanted FDD black external cover and eject button

[cloverskull]

Hey friends, I have an A1200 which I've towerized in an Elbox kit. The computer case is black. I want to transplant the internal FDD from the A1200 into the tower, but right now it doesn't have a front cover and is very ugly. Does anyone know of a decent black FDD cover and button that I could use for this?

Just get a Sony MPF Drive with a black front. Then with some simple soldering you can make it work with the Amiga.

Oh, nice. Will try to find one. Sadly the ones on Amazon all appear to be >$100USD
