Warren, thanks for the warning. I knew about the importance, but not just anybody would have!

Restuffing, now that's an idea I would not have thought of.... Thanks PuhPow and Mondial. Also, thanks for the schematic, I already found that one as well. It should be sufficient.

I'm not personally worried about the original appearance underneath. I'm thinking that staying true to the design is important (i.e., don't duct tape in an iPod). But, if somebody follows me in 20 years and sees the work, they will know somebody else was through. (hopefully they won't shake their head and swear at what they find...)

I expect that I'll have what I need to get started on the weekend, but I have some obligations that may prevent that. I'll keep ya'll posted. I'll have photos when I have a link to a photo site.
