Optical Drive Bezel

    Hi folks

    Anyone know a supplier in Ireland or Uk that sell Bezels for Laptop Optical Drives? Preferably that support 9.5mm drives and are also affordable price. I have tried Ebay, Amazon and a few other sites but they either do not sell Bezels separately or if they do they are quite expensive... you'd be better buying a full optical drive enclosure to get the bezel cheaper than buy one separately.

    Any help appreciated.

    Thanks.

    What is the make and model of your laptop? Make and model of the drive?

    I don't require a specific type of bezel for a laptop make. I have a Toshiba X70-10W but what I have done is remove the optical drive and replace it with HDD/SSD caddy. I got an optical drive enclosure but it's a 12.7mm enclosure with a bezel that suits 12.7mm optical drives. Now the 9.5mm optical drive from the laptop fits fine into the 12.7mm enclosure but the Bezel that came with it doesn't so I need a 9.5mm optical drive bezel to finish the enclosure. It can be a generic one and nothing fancy to suit a specific laptop make as it's more for the enclosure than the laptop.

    I think I should have stated the optical drive enclosure a bit more clearly in the original post, sorry :o
