    I just picked up a MK5 from eBay missing keyboard, HD and caddy, battery, CD drive, and power adapter. No big deal. I had all those sitting as backups for my MK3. There are two items in particular I need -

    Keyboard bezel - This is the plastic bit that goes above the keyboard to hold it in place. I am using a standard keyboard.

    Keyboard cable cover. This is the plate under the keyboard that is almost square with the left top corner cut off. This I found out must be from a MK5. I had one from a MK4 and discovered the screw hole spacing is not the same. Whoever pulled the keyboard did not remove the screws for the hinge cover on the right and badly bent the h_ll out of the cover to get to the keyboard cable connectors.

    Hey Rusty ... Thanks for keeping us safe from all those nasty WMDs LOL .. I have several of both pieces you need that I will give you if you want to cover the shipping to Iraq. Just let me know how you'd like to handle it ...
