Wanted: Cabinet Fan (with LED)

[goobimama]

Hi,

I read an article in a PC mag where they show you how to modify your PC cabinet. Now I've got it down to do everything but put a Cabinet fan with a light. They said that the Antec Light Fan costs around 1200. Is there a cheaper solution out there? I wouldn't mind paying around 400-500 for one, but 1200 is way too much for a stupid fan.

I live in Goa so i don't have access to good shops that are there in Lamington Road and stuff which is why I'm asking for help.

Wait a minute. You said

i aint going back to lamington for three 3 buck LED's and a stupid power pin which is probably for 50 paise

3 bucks? seriously? I would love to buy some. If there is a kind soul out there, can someone courier me the stuff? I'll pay. Out here in Goa all I can buy is a big black fan.

also, can I use the small little lights that Bike riders put near the number plates? I wonder....
