    like to switch my faceplates often, and the little, sticky, rubber screw
    covers are getting messed up.

    i need to obtain more of them. i've tried cingular, motorola and radioshack
    without luck.

    any thoughts or suggestions?

    thanks.

    Re: screw covers

    You can try making your own using double sided tape I hear, or email Dennis
    at cnn.cn I believe he carries them, but doesn't have them listed as a
    product.

    Re: screw covers

    I've heard/seen that people have made their own with silicone caulk by using
    the correct size coffee stir stick or bar mix-stix or heat-shrink tube.

    They 1st fill the stick with Vasaline or talcum power then squeeze in the
    caulk.

    Let it dry about 2 hours, then cut the plugs to size and remove the stick
    cover.

    In the future, if you have to remove the plugs from the phone a small sewing
    needle works best to stab the plug and lift it out.

    If you are carefull at selecting the caulk, get the "paintable" kind and you
    can use a "Sharpie" to color the end of the plug and it won't show at all.

    Re: screw covers WARNING...WARNING!

    "Rolling your own" is ok for the cover plugs but beware of this: On the V
    series, the one little bumper that is closest to the * key, hides a photo
    sensor. When the cover is opened, this sensor controls whether the keyboard
    light is activated (yes in dim light, no in bright light).
