they use different types of mount iirc

so even if you can get the glass panel you wont be able to mount it


the normal ones use hinge
the glass panel is screwed in
 

correct me if im wrong `-`

tempered glass needs to be made to shape, you can't cut it. Just use normal glass.

i've looked on google, and it doesn't look like they are selling the panels seperately (it could just be that the normal one doesn't have the proper mounting holes for the glass

ok, but then I'll have to mount them.

how do i do?

bring your case to the glass shop and discuss there

they might be able to drill holes for you to screw it into your case or the side panel to replace the acryllic? o.O

 

you dont wanna drill glass yourself :D leave it to the pros

if you're wondering if you can install the TG model's side panels, you can't they use a completely seperate mounting mechanism. if you're wondering if you can just mod it on there, you can just find a big enough piece and use some good 3M tape all along the sides it will hold it in place

I don't know anything about your case but you should look up a video called Tempered Glass Side Panel Mod - Arctic Panther Build Part 3. It's by Paul's Hardware on youtube. I didn't watch the whole video but I think he basically he orders a custom cut tempered glass online. You should watch other videos and do more research tho. there are multiple methods, tips, and tricks out there that might make it easier.

Here I have a guide specifically on this under Window Modding which goes over mounting, as mentioned going with regular glass would be your best bet just be a bit careful as if it does break it will be in shards.
