I am in the same situation as Tony with my PDP 8/e system.  My system 
originally came with a blank black panel at the top, that had a rotary switch 
placed in the center which would allow remapping of the three RK05 drives to 
different unit numbers.   It also came with an additional "blank" black panel 
(no sign of any adhesive residue either).  I'd love to have the correct insert 
for the blank panel to put at the top of the rack.

If anyone (Rod S. (aka Panelman) seems a great possibility) ends up making 
something that is reasonably accurate and looks good, I'd sign up to buy one 
straight away.
