Window for a P160?

I don't wanna go crazy and mod the side panel myself, so I was wondering if anyone has heard/seen of windowed side panels for the P160. I was thinking of getting some LED fans to complement my 7000B-Cu (LED version). It would match the front LED's rather well, and give the case a nice shine.
 
Damn, I didn't want to have to use Ebay. But that looks enticing.

Are these discontinued products or something? I can't find them at any retailer.
 
yeah, i paid 20$ + 10$ s/h for my lianli PC-61 stock PC-65 window back in the day :/

Why dont you try running an email to antec? They may be able to sell you spare parts!
 
The ebayed one doesn't look like an original windowed side panel. It doesn't even look like it has the turning lock on it near the top of the side panel.

The directron one is an original. Notice it has the 3 oval bezels that match the front of the P160. I got the windowed version of the P160, was less than $10 more than the non-windowed version and it came with the front fan as well as the back fan. Window + 120mm fan for less than $10, kind of a no brainer. You can easily spend $10 for the fan alone. Most window kits run well over $10 as well.

Where can I get that version? I would love to get the window, let alone an extra fan. And at only $10 more?

Newegg still has it but the regular Antec P160 is $95+15.99 shipping on there and the windowed version is $130+15.99 shipping. You're better off buying a regular P160 then buying the windowed side panel seperately since you get an extra side panel it seems. I think this is more a reflection of the price drop on the P160 since it used to go for $130-150. It seems the normal non-windowed version has dropped in price but the windowed version has stayed the same.

 
im getting a buddy to make me a custom side panel for my p160 hope it turns out ok.....but nothing fits like oem.
