Anybody got a idea whereabouts I can buy some of these, which so far as I can gather are threaded 3mm and not the more common 6 32 which I've tried and they don't fit. I did find one shop online that actually sells them, but they want about 20x the cost of the goods to ship from the USA and I'm not that insane - not yet anyway.

Unfortunately the A05B case's previous owner appears to have lost most of them leaving me with just 3 to make do with and mounted motherboards don't feel that stable. I've got zillions of spare 6 32's, but no 3mm standoffs despite hours looking.

I am thinking that I could just have the motherboard tray re-tapped to take 6 32 standoffs instead, but before I do that did anybody hereabouts try that and was the fit and finish OK or compromised
 
OK don't panic - I answered my own question and ebayed 'M3 mobo standoffs' and got 25 for less than a fiver. I only need 6, so if anybody is using a Lian Li and needs any give me a shout and I'll hook you up.
