Curse

Ok... so basically for a long while I've been searching for a window side panel for my Lian Li case. I want to replace the stock solid one.

This is my case http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=CA-054-LL

Now, I noticed under it there is a link to an ''Upgrade'' side panel for it: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=CA-064-LL it suggests that it is compatible with my case.

Now I don't live in the UK so I can't order it from them, but I found it on the Lian Li site: http://www.silverpcs.com/product_inf...679c66f9373a5d

So my question is, does this all match up? Can anyone confirm if I can be 100% sure it will fit? Sorry this is really a daft question, but I don't want to mess this up when I order, else I'll be out 30$

Fits: Lian Li PC-60/61/65/68/601/6085 and PC-7 cases

I don't know about this particular instance, but as a side note, it's not surprising to find one side panel that fits a number of cases. Often times, a line of case from a manufacturer will use the same basic "frame" with the the same basic dimensions and side-panel attachment method, with different front panel designs and internal features.

Yeah, it's just they half assed on the pictures and they don't show the other side of the panel that has the connectors on it, I need the 3 slot connectors, and they have a four slot version on some panels.

I think I'll give it a shot then, and hope for the best. I just wish newegg would carry it.

I think it'll work, the picture looks kinda bent and stuff :<

This might be what you're looking for? I usually buy doors from here (you can send in your old one and they'll cut it for you too)

Hmm, but it seems that it's 10$ more on their site, but they drill out the old bolt holes and put new ones in which is probably why - which I don't really care for.

But yeah I've checked tons of sites to see what they had, so far I'm not finding any super good deals or anything, it's pretty expensive for a window side panel.

brianna if you're skilled like me you do it yourself ^^ (looks nicer in the end too) or otherwhise loads of hw shops nowadays that have casemodding equip also offer to put it in place however the prefab side windows look better in most cases unless you completely do it yourself (don't recommend it if you got a steel server case like i do -_-)

I don't have the tools or the experience to do that type of thing myself, no. But I wish I did.

It' an Aluminum side panel, so it's pretty flimsy. It will be a week or two before I buy it at this point, so I'll have more time to think/look around in other places.
