    Lian Li Case Thumb Screws - Where can I buy them?

    I bought a Lian Li PC-7 second hand a while ago and have been really happy with it. Only thing is, whoever owned it before me has lost some of the thumbscrews (and also forced standard case screws into some of the holes so the lian li ones don't fit any more, but I have to use normal ones instead).

    So I bought myself a couple of bags of standard case thumbscrews from ebuyer for next to nothing and have fitted them everywhere they will fit. Now I'm looking for a set of lian li case thumbscrews (different thread) to finish what I started and completely thumbscrew out my case.

    Only problem is I can't seem to find anywhere which sells them. As I don't know the official name for the different threaded screws, thats probably not helping, but if anyone knows where I could find some (in silver preferably) that would be great

    I saw the guy on the for sale forum selling them off, the problem is the colour really. I think my case would look a bit stupid half and half with the colours.

    I checked out kustompcs, but unfortunately no screws for the old lian lis

    do what i did to one of my lians.... buy standard thumbscrews and retap the threads on the case to match. lians use an m3 thread instead of the more common imperial thread that other case manufacturers use.

    I am trying to see it your way, but I can't get my head up my arse
