Wow. This one might make me sound a little green...
In all the time I've been doing hardware hacks, I've never needed standoffs for anything before. Now I'm putting a DA board in a 9600, and I need standoffs! But I have no idea where to buy them. The local Rat Shack is useless, of course. Any ideas?
Peace,
Drew
they come with them, in fact more than you would need, so you could save the case for a later project. Any $19.99 wonder will do the job
I recommend PI Manuf. for all-sorts-of-stuff-like-this.

Thanks Dan. I'll give them a try.

...depending on what the standoff must look like (functionally, I mean), you could always go browsing through the hardware section at your local DIY store. I often find good things to improvise with. You could even try an arts/crafts store and find some tubular beeds that would possible foot the bill although you would need zip ties or a bolts vice just snapping it together. While it is not an exact science (and I am not saying use any crap you find) you may find an interesting and creative way to standoff your hardware without having to pay extra for a specific part (unless there is no other way or you are doing a true restoration).
