    yeh later as I was brainstorming the idea. I thought of using glue. It would act as a noise reducer too. I may have to go that route. Also those zip tights wouldn't that make the fan vibrate? cuz it's not solid.

    You could use rubber grommets. It would also reduce fan vibration.

    If you put the zip ties on right and nice and tight it will not vibrate, I have had no complaints with this fix.

    Yup,zip ties here.the only way i could get mine to stay was zip ties.The front of my case refused to come off so this was the easiest way to get them to stay.

    There's usually a way for all fronts of cases to come off. Mine has screws on the sides to secure it, other pop off with tabs.

    I think I remember having a similar problem like this, but I must have solved it because I have a fan in the front now. Is the hole for each of the fans just a hole? Or is it indented on one side or something, like is smaller on one side of the panel or the other?

    Pics perhaps? :-)

    there is a spot for a fan with predrilled holes at each corner. They are holes. Nothing else i can really describe. The rubber groomet idea might be ok.

    How big are the holes?

    Because typical case screws wont fit in my Fan holes, but the Fan Screws will fit.
