The icons _are_ in the device drivers, but probably just stored as bits in
memory. It you are truly gung-ho about this, you can trace through a call
to the driver (control call, csCode=22) to see where it stores the icon.
(The call is documented on IM V-470). Once you find the icon, you would have
to build an appropriate icon in ResEdit, write down the hex, and patch up
the driver.

Personally, I think turning the monitor would be easier :-)
