    So as I have converted my optical bay to house a third HDD and switched my optical drive to be external, I still need to get it a bezel. I have searched the Optical to HDD caddy conversion thread (and all over the forums) but have not found an answer beyond buying a Panasonic slot load bezel from macrecycling.com. Well macrecycling.com's site is either been down for a very long time or they've gone out of business. I've searched google for "panasonic slot load bezel" and it comes up with several different routes. Will any slot load bezel work for the m17x's optical drive or do I need to get something more specific.
