Don't know if this has been asked before, but ..........................

Just bought my girlfriend a T68m for her birthday, but she wants the T68i Blue/Silver cover for it (I know, ungrateful c*w ! ). Anyone got any ideas where I can buy one from. I have has a look on eBay but there only seems to be front covers available, not entire housings.

Any help would be appreciated, Cheers.

Be careful when buying a rear cover - the aerial is stuck to it as a sort of sticky label - you have to heat it up to be able to peal it off without ripping it.

Saying that though, if you buy a T68i front cover and whack it on the t68m, the back bit - not the battery - almost perfectly matches the silver colour. I should know - I've done this! - So you wont actually need a new (or second hand) rear casing.

All you'll need is the new front casing, keypad, a new aerial casing (small top black bit with ericsson logo on on t68m) and T68i battery. The first three of which can be bought from www.andrewboss.co.uk. I bought a T68i front case, and keypad from him - got it cheaper than his site lists as i contacted him through an ebay auction of his:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1942906086

Didnt bother with the t68i aerial cover or battery as i like the rubber backing - means it doesnt slide everywhere, and it looks good too.

Hope that helps!

Yeah i wood recomend to just switch the front.
And another tip is: use a black marker pen and collor the inside of the front! COZ then the led light wont shine thrue the plastic. But if ya want to switch everyting you can get the intaier cazzing:
Click on the pictures to go and buy:





And if you want another collor on the battery:



This ones flashes when you recive calls/sms






And if you want the T68i key pad you can get it here:







I hope i was to any help. Personaly i use a normal T68 rubber back and a fake Adriatic blue with original T68m keypad. It loock okay butt its really smart to use a black marke on the inside of the facia
