Title: TG3/Deck BL83 switch plate, black housing
Post by: mtl on Sun, 07 August 2011, 13:52:22

I'm looking for a switch plate, as seen in Half-Saint's BL83 mod (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:14034), and here in one of his pictures (http://www.shrani.si/?3x/u6/13089hM/dsc0176.jpg). Also looking for the black housing to go with it.  I'm willing to buy the whole keyboard for a fair price, but really I only want the switch plate and housing. Thanks!

Revenge (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?20249-TG3-Data911-Keyboards-w-Touchpad-15-35) has some parts boards @$15.  Don't know if the plate is the same as without the touchpad.

PM me with a reasonable offer, i'm thinking to sell the whole keyboard (in perfect conditions), I got the kb with the purpose  of modding it but I realized is not for me

Yeah, keep in mind that the TP's backplate should be the same as the non-TP version, but you definitely won't be able to use the case. :P
