I know, but it's the best I can do without a complete disasembly of the
unit, which I am loathe to do, given its age and likely sensitivity to such
manhandling. The units I have seem to have been designed such that the
plastic case is entirely decorative, and there is a metal case that is
quite impressive, just underneath. Not something I would really like to
take apart...
