         Why would you need a lighted bezel? From what I have gathered =
the buttons are the only backlit item.,is this true ,Mish?

        Also, Dave Scott made me some excellent MFD bezels, aluminum
        there are pics on the simpits file area,

        Having said that, we are exploring backlit button options.

        Dear Al,
        Thanks for the request. I flew the F-16 Vista on some =
flight-test work. Will
        definitely share some experiences a bit later. Going out of =
country for a
        few days and may not be with the list.

        Gene, acrylic should not be a problem as I see it...and I have =
located some
        dimensions of the bezel. Please keep a head count and I will =
respond on my
        return. Thanks.
