Nothing? Surely I'm not the only one who has had this issue?  ..and ok, I won't call you Shirley.

Do you have a link of what you are talking about off Jab Tech?

Unfortunately no, the page has been removed. I believe it's like a standard long rubber mount, but with a longer space between the disc bit at the end and the next ridge.. if that makes any sense at all, lol... allows to secure the fan to the case, but additional length to allow for a fan grill outside the case (as if the case wall was really thick). Might shoot an email off to MountainMods, it's for one of their cases.
 

Are you meaning something like this?  http://www.modright.com/products/11381/fss-37/ModRight_Ninja_Vibration_Silencer_120mm_Fan_Gasket_w_Lip_-_Black.html
 
I use something similar on my case and they work well.  Not this exact type, but similar.

I think I would use the above for the fan grill.

Thanks for all that. The top image I've looked at, they're for a specific type of closed corner fan, although they look like they might work but spacing not quite wide enough.
 
The second image is really interesting, I thought at first the little center pin was specifically for grill mounting (great idea if it was), but apparently not.. they allow fitting the main mount easier, then the center pin has to be pushed through to 'lock' the main mount in place.. but it can't push fully through with a grill.. damn that would be a good idea though. $2.50 each (with shipping) a bit steep though, lol.
 
Thanks for all the other links, already checked all of them - spent ages at Amazon, Newegg, Performance-pcs, even FrozenCPU (despite their drama at present) before posting here.. the closed corner fan mounts, although not intended for what I want to do, might just do it if they are stretchy enough without pulling through the holes, so I'll give them a try.
 
I also got a response from Mountain Mods if anyone is interested;
 

"Sorry, but we don't carry any rubber grommets.  We haven't seen much use for them in our cases as the materials used are thick and the screw fastening panels do not generate vibration that many standard cases do.  I'd imagine you'd need to look at a hardware store or online rubber grommet specialty supply that would have the dimensions required to do the job."

 
So there ya go. I'll try the closed corner fan mounts and report back in a week or two once I have them.
 
Thanks so much for all your research BCavnaugh, much appreciated!
 
 
 

Just saw your post Nereus, why cant you just go with longer screws and just cut a couple rubber squares, from a old bike tire tube maybe, and put a hole in the middle for the screw to go through, then sandwich one between the filter and fan and then one between the fan and case? Lian-Li has that type of setup on my case on the bottom 140mm fan/mount setup. You don't see the rubber at all and it works excellent. If you need a pict let me know brotha!! \m/
 
EDIT: I should clarify that the squares they used are glued to the mount too. They also have these things that come with your case parts: http://www.coolerguys.com/840556091523.html  Those black grommets are separate from the thumb screws and rubber. You can use them with any screw they will fit on, not just the thumbscrews, if that's more like what you wanted.

I've done exactly that in the past, basically rubber washers   but this time I was looking to avoid the use of screws entirely. Not to worry, decided it was time to try a new case instead - my MountainMods case has been running for many years but it's time for a change. Corsair Carbide Air 540 ordered.. yes, I really like cube cases.
Thanks :)
 

lol, I was just commenting in another thread about fighting the trigger on buying the 540 myself and how much I liked it right from debut. I think your gonna be really happy with it and now im jealous so im leaving your thread. :P

Sorry to hear that (your Dad and your dog). I feel your pain regarding sorting out benefits etc., when my Dad passed 2 years ago it was a mission getting his military pension (US Navy Commander - retired) and social security sorted out for my Mom, and all the other bits and pieces... still have a few loose ends to sort out 2 years on!
 
 

Thanx Nereus, same to you. My father worked for the govt so its been a nightmare so far. Sooooo hoping it doesn't last 2 years or more of fighting with these people. He didn't have a will either and when my grandparents died he had 50% ownership of some propertys with them which he never changed the deeds to include my mother also etc.... and a whole slew of other things. After seeing what not having a will can do I went and did that for myself to save others the headache of dealing with such a situation.
