    Does someone have a reproduction for the plastic heater bezel in aluminum? One of mine broke at the lever fastening point. A quick search only found a 'be careful' reminder but no replacement suggestions.

    Being that they are unobtainable, I think I read a thread that Verell in making them.

    Yes, I also found a 3 year old thread with mention of a prototype but think it was just a dream.
    Also Verell seems to be in stealth mode without any web or other contact information.

    Paul,

    Verell is out there in the ether as I got an email several days ago from him.

    And, "YES" he makes them and they are beautiful. I ordered and received two sets from him over time. You will not go wrong. Just order enough to replace all of them. That way they will all match. YES, there are very slight differences and the rest WILL BREAK eventually. One of mine just crumbled in my hand and that was not the broken one I meant to replace.

    Expensive, "YES;" worth it ............. ABSOLUTELY!!!!

    I'm busy but not in 'stealth mode', Fchat member contact info still works. Easy way to contact me via PM or eMAIL is to find one of my posts, click on my name and select either [ Send eMAIL to Verell] or [Send a Private Message to Verell].

    Verell's bezels are like little jewels. But I warn you....you won't be able to replace just one! :) The new one makes the old ones look like crap!
