B&W G3 handles
Posted by: cylindricpanda on 2021-11-27 21:26:11
Just recently got an otherwise fine G3/450 in the post, but unfortunately the seller didn't pack it as well as they could have, and the bottom rear support bracket took a critical hit. I've seen this particular one for 46$ ()ugh on usedmac and I know I've read the G4 brackets are interchangeable...if I HAVE to I could get one of those I guess, or the correct one, but I thought I'd ask here first if anyone has one they'd part with/sell. Doesn't have to be pretty, just in one piece.

cheers

The early G4 handles fit fine. My G3/400 has G4 plastics on it, so it no longer has that milky appearance that it originally had.

oh the milkyness doesn't bother me, it reminds me of the bottom plastics of the og iMacs.

True there. For originality, G3 handles would be best. But, for uniqueness, clear works well.
