Here's a tip; remove the cover from your case as well as the temperature monitors. Tightly place ONE piece of masking tape over the outside of the cover and rest it on your work desk with the tape side touching the desk. Fill in the crooked hole with epoxy glue and let it FULLY dry, usually 24 hours. Remove the tape and cut it up again so that it's straight! ;) works great!

m0a2t4t,

I built a couple of servers at work and I think we used those cases.

If you can post a picture of the back side of one of the covers, I can look and see if we have any spares left over.

I'll check Tuesday, I have to go to a client's office to do some work Monday, so I won't be at the office.

If I have one or two, does $5 sound fair to cover the shipping to you?

I don't have that exact cover, but I found one that had four clamps, on the corners, like the one you have pictured. Soon as I can find another web host, I'll post a pic.


..... Just wanted to let you know I didn't forget. :2cool:
