Blast from the past - motherboard clip in stand offs. I need some

I have an old Nikao Zeus mid tower ATX case that was apparently distributed by some Canadian outfit called Tradex Information Technology. I couldn't find a Nikao website but I this appears to be Tradex's site: http://www.tradexinfo.com/

My problem is the case uses clip in stand offs. I need some replacements and I can't find them anywhere. Below are some pictures of various clip in stand offs (pics taken from the side and above).

My Zeus case takes the South (i.e. bottom most) clip in stand off that is in these pictures. The one to the West (i.e. far left) is Lian Li's style. North and East I have no idea. I don't suppose anybody has some or any ideas on a source?
 
Thanks. I ordered some but they are are too small; about 15-20% smaller than the square cut out in the case. Kind of close but not enough to fit and hold secure.

God damn proprietary/custom parts!!! Come on anandtech. Nobody has any other sources.
 
Other suggestion....buy a new case like the always on sale Antec 300 which can be found routinely for $50, or the like. You'd probably be better off and have a better chance of finding replacement parts in the future.

That site hurts my eyes... epileptic new icons??

But yes, I'd recommend going with a new case when you can find one... there's just something about standards that make them oh so attractive.
