Both have 3 small screws and 2 line up perfetcly; you can either leave the 3rd screw out (the tray still works fine) or, as some people have done, drill a 3rd hold in the plastic (far away from the mechanism, so not TOO risky) that lines up with the 3rd screw. I've done this on a Pismo with a UJ-810 and a UJ-811, and it looks great. While this is completely true, Panasonic has reportedly discontinued all of the drives mentioned, in favor of the UJ-845-B. It is the UJ/UJDA-8xx (where xx is 10, 20, 30, etcetera, but *not* 45) which is completely compatible with the bezel of the Mac PBs, as described above. Don't know about what's been discontinued or not, but the drives are easy to find on ebay. The important thing, as I mentioned, is to get a TRAY-loading model. The UJ-845 is a slot-loader, which does work fine in the Pismo, but obviously you can't use the original bezel At least, not without cutting a slot in it! Though it should be noted further that some online stores (MCE, Wegener Media, etc.) do sell slot-loading drives for the Pismo with a Pismo bezel on them. Probably custom-made, custom-cut solutions.
