Hi all...
I am in the process of designing 3D printed faceplate for Exxos Sony MPF920 floppy drive 1.44MB replacement.
Modular design hopefully easier to modify for different drives.
Needs two small screws for Eject button M1.7 * 6mm.
Note:
Only tested on Atari 1040 STe case and MPF920 Z/161 SEP2005.

I will be posting all the 3D files as soon as I verify fitment but it's looking promising so far.

So I need to adjust the thickness of the spacer or print one more (Need extra clearance for floppy disk with old labels).

Thanks.
Just got back from work let's see if I can test this 1mm spacer quickly.

So I used 1.5mm spacer on my Atari ST/e case.
Bottom of the Atari ST/e case flush with the front flat part of the faceplate. :D
