By chance, has anyone created a narrow faceplate replacement?

Not that's ever been posted on the board, and I wouldn't expect it to happen, either, unless you do it yourself -- the problem is that the handle attaches in that little bit of extra width, so if you make a narrow face plate, you lose the handle. The other problem with a narrow faceplace is that everyone's "narrow" is going to be slightly different, depending on the make of the car. Mine would have had a millimeter, or two in the back, and then be tapered to about twice that in the front.
