| Is that the CBX ?.
Don't know about a homebase but the cbx had an aluminium face plate.
Never seen a plastic one and seen a lot back in the day when i was a rig doc. | |

| The backing or whatever you want to call it is plastic as it is on most radios but the front plate with branding and stuff was aluminium.
You only have to look at them on ebay as they are mostly falling of or folded over worn through the paint. | |
