I found the code on avsforum somewhere, its also on this forum under a toshiba tv post. 

any chance you could post some pics of your bezel in action with the greylite glass?  the glass shop here offers 2 smokey grey's, one is about 25% dark and the other is about 50% dark, any idea what the greylite 14 compares to?

describe the interference, theres 3 different types that I know of..
1) interlace lines flickering
2) wavey motion during black or dark scenes
3) distortion of picture on the left/middle of the screen

This would describe what I'm seeing:

2) wavey motion during black or dark scenes

It seems to happen with dark blue. Black seems fine. It just doesn't like dark blue.

I've never attached a photo before, so I hope they make it, but these are some shots with and without the glass. It's hard to convey that with digital photos. The without looks much worse than it does in person.

Dont ask me where but I have read several times that its a common problem with SDTV's and component connections (maybe PC connections only) to have those wavey lines on dark scenes, it might be possible if you use high quality over priced component cables it could help but im doubtful.   Picking up a Geforce 7300GT tomorrow and going to see if the quality is improved or changed at all over nvidia type component connection.   The only thing that really bothers me with component is how bright my "reds" are, like Ken in street fighter is blinding and lacking detail, of course the greylite would improve it a lot.

and wow that glass looks great, as does the bezel... still waiting on my bezel to arrive,  does the greylite glass hide or make the component flicker less noticeable?

the glass shop here offers 2 different shades of grey, one is really dark, say 50% dark and the other is say 25% dark... wish I knew which greylite 14 compared to

my reds were bleeding bad too, but I fixed that in the service menu. I turned down the red bias [correction I turned dow the red DRV]. I don't have it with me, but I thought I might post the service menu settings just for reference. I know evey tv would be different, but I thought it might be useful for someone.

The greylite does help hide the wavy lines some. They're still there, just not as noticable. I only see them on rare occasions when dark blue comes up. Black doesn't set it off thankfully.
