Modular I/O panel (PCI)

[Stonelesscutter]

I'm working on a design for a PC case and have been having a hard time figuring out how to handle the PCI slots at the back. I've decided it might be easier if there was a part which takes care of this, so I could just cut a big hole and place that part and be done with it. Lo and behold, it seems it exists! I found the following part by Mountain Mods.

It looks to be just the ticket for me and I would certainly be willing to pay the asking price, but the cheapest shipping of the part to UK turns out to cost 27 dollars. That makes the total price for getting just this small part 50 bucks, and that's a bit rich for me. So I went looking for similar parts here in the UK, but so far haven't found any. I was wondering if anyone knows of a place where I could something like this part shipped to me for a bit less. Or any idea of what search term to use to look for something like this?

Look for places that sell case parts or upgradable cases that can hold different motherboard tray. Another option would be to cannibalize an old case to strip out it's motherboard tray and rear IO section for your specific application.

ya modding using mb trays is a nesh thing people just don't mod any more like they use too. cheapest thing is find a case and cut the mb tray and pci slots out. or get an vertical gpu bracket but that probably cost more...
