Thanks Matt.

I've got the artwork generation process down pretty solid, so doing 
one-off panels isn't that big of a deal.  It can get sticky if the 
edge-lit panel needs to fit a "real" or not-built-by-me chassis.  In that 
case, I'd just have the customer ship me the chassis to ensure that what I 
make will fit.  If that's not practical for whatever reason, I can show 
them how to pull dimensions from the chassis and then I can send them a 
laser cut cardstock template that they can try to fit.  Rinse/repeat until 
it fits perfectly, then it's off to the races. :)
