Does anyone know where I can get some of these ?

http://www.antec.com/Detail.bok?no=590

Ive put mine somewhere "safe" (which basically means i'll never see them again) and I now need to add a fan controller and water res (sits in the drive bay) and I don't have any clips, Things I have already tried to source some.

1. I've ransacked the house and shouted at the wife
2. Tried to buy some from antec, paid for them and waited only to have the order cancelled because they cant ship outside the US
3. Emailed Antec CS support to see if they have any (awaiting reply)
4. Hassled friends with the same case for some (awaiting reply)
5. Cried

I really don't want to have to pay £100+ for a new case for the sake of 4 drive rails, Does anyone have any other ideas ?

Lies TBH - They will turn up, the first place you looked for them, as soon as you pay for some replacements

the first place I looked for them was the last place I would have expected them, which was in the fridge, Ive double checked there to be sure

May have found some from the Euro site

however they are for the Sonata II but as there are no pictures I cant tell if they would work or not, anyone with a Sonata II ? Could they compare their rails with the below image

Those look like the same ones that i used on for my case. To be honest, it would be best getting some through antec.

well after emailing antec and corresponding with Jeff, they have listed them on the Euro site, and he mailed me the following link.

If anyone else is looking for them and to to give some resolution to the thread, So big thanks to Antec.

Nice to see its all sorted, shame it costs that much for only 2 sets of rails. :rolleyes:

LOAM · 21 Apr 2009 at 20:23

yeah true but you get 4 rails so its only about £1.25 each which is still a load cheaper than £115 for a new case, In addition I didn't have to actually buy any in the end as 2 mates had 6 spare between them, but its the thought that counts
