I think, this will not be possible...

If you don`t have a LiteOn-Plextor drive, PlexUtilities won`t run.

Even on my Plextor PX-860SA (which is a Pioneer DVR-217) Plextools don`t work...

It uses the WMI service to detect the Plextor is installed. It could be made to work with a LiteOn but I'm not sure there would be much demand for it.
