PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a versatile front-panel structure for electronic apparatuses in which different functions can be arranged at a same position. SOLUTION: This front panel 10 is a resin molded product machined by metal molding, and has a structure in which either a switch part or an indicator part can be arbitrarily selected for a same position. Namely, for use as a switch, a partial oblique view and a partial cross-sectional view are shown in figure (a) and for use as an indicator, a partial oblique view and a partial cross-sectional view are shown in figure (b). For use as a switch, a dent 12 is used as exposed, while for use as an indicator, a light guide 30 is inserted in the dent 12. By selecting a part that fits the light guide and that is to be mounted on a printed board 20, a same position on the front panel can be used both for a switch and for an indicator.
