This looks promising.  For the next piece, could you do the GTA01 
speaker bracket?  I have 2 freerunners and I would mute one of them if 
it would let me have stereo sound from my GTA04.  As I understand it, 
everyone could use the GTA01 bracket even if they only have one speaker.

I wonder if the battery cover could be painted with plastic etching 
spraypaint?  I may have to get one of the printed covers as one of my 
current covers has a hole drilled in it for my infrared thermometer.
