Not sure what forum to plop this in so I plopped it here:

So... a piece of my P180 fan mount for the lower chamber near the PSU is snapped at the really thin part. I put an entry in on Antec's customer support about a spare part... but I heard elsewhere there are no spare parts for the P180 yet, is that true?

If that is true, what should I do? Tape it? Superglue it? Yuck, broken pieces... :(
 
Need a replacement? I got one! It's actually from the front fan, but it looks identical. LMK.
 
i snapped my bottem fan mount, not the 4 notches that hold it in but that big rectangular piece. i just chunked it away.

serversystem - i noticed you didnt use the plastic fan holder in the top intake, prob y your filter rubs the fan.

anyways i think he is referring to the bottom mid fan, not sure if he broke the same as me, but i broke that big rectangular piece that you can see clearly in your pic.
 
Yeah, that last picture of yours on the bottom, in the middle of the case. The black plastic around that orange fan, but you cant see the broken part of that piece in the picture, its the skinny part.
 
Wait a second... I just looked at the mount, right? And the piece that snapped is the thin piece that is holding on the big fat black piece that goes on the side of the fan. Does that big fat black piece serve any purpose? Because if not then I'll just snap the other thin piece thats holding it on and take it out, because my main worry about the broken piece was that it would rattle like hell.

See that piece on the right? One of the thin parts holding it is what snapped. So does that serve any purpose at all?
 
just send antec an email, and they will send you a replacement for free as long as you have a receipt. antec is really nice like that.
 
Yeah. I realized that after I posted this and was like.. hey wait.. it's not a business day. :D

Sorry.
