See whether they'll sell you a license for the Apple DOS 3.3 Master
Diskette.  They used to license this out for $50/year.  If you can
buy a license for that, you're covered, because the II+ ROM code is
contained in the INTBASIC and FPBASIC files on the disk.

Failing that, you can buy DOS 3.3 disks from Syndicomm for $20 each
(with manual).  If you buy one of these for each machine that's running
the simulator, you've got a licensed ROM image for each.

Although now that I just read your original message again, it appears
that you want IIe ROM images, and those aren't on the DOS 3.3 Master.
Can you get by with II+ ROM images?
