Sub LV Bezel Question

I'm considering getting an LV Sub and wondering if the bezel will swap with a regular black sub bezel, or are they different? The idea being that you could use either the black or the kermit. If they are different, where can you get a black LV bezel? Thanks for your help.

It´s just to swap, a black insert will fits like a charm.

Im thinking of having the same option avaliable to me. Is the bezel change a home job? or AD and a few quid/bucks?

Cheers

You could always go Plat,

Just kidding it doesn't fit, this is my son's YM bezel just balanced on his LV.

Kinda looks like a Tag don't it?
