Cooler Master HAF XM Window Side Panel

[y0gurt]

Desperate times...

Wondering if anyone out there has a line on anywhere or anyone selling the window side panel for the HAF XM. There was one for sale on the Cooler Master webstore and I snapped it up over the weekend, but found out today that my order had been cancelled and they are out of stock... Bummer.

Anyone out there know if it's possible to find one anywhere? Hours of googling has got me nowhere. :-(

He is a vendor rep to:

He might be able to help you out in exactly what you need and which part number it would be at the store.

I'll try that, Aigomorla. Thank you for the reply!!

If all else fails, I will find someone with a plasma cutter.

No reply/luck. Hopefully one surfaces some day.

If it's that hard to find, why not go the DIY route?

I had a consultation with a witchdoctor who told me if I turned on my Dremel or jigsaw in the next six months that I would suffer a grotesque mutilation of my private areas. If you don't respect voodoo, that's fine, but I'm not taking any chances.

I was just in a similar circumstance with my HAF 912. I wanted a clear side panel, but the only one that fits is only available on the EU website. Would have been $55 shipped. I also wanted LED fans to light up the inside, but opted to just buy a new case with LED fans already installed for $80 shipped.

I can then either sell my HAF 912 for maybe 20 or 30 bucks, or turn the HAF into an HTPC later on.

That's cool... I'm pretty much married to the XM. I'm just gonna continue to hold on to my delusion of hope that there's an unoccupied one out there willing to spend a great many years with me. Anyway, it worked with my wife eventually.

Well you only other choice is to see if somebody here in this forum would be willing to build you a new side panel if you aren't willing to do it yourself, and won't consider another case.

I'm not worried about it. If it happens, cool. If not, I'll live. Enough insanity happening in the world to be sweating a side panel!! I'ma keep an eye out though... Thank you for your help.
