[CLOSED] Looking for Stock Corsair 500R 120mm fans [WTB/WTT]

UPDATE: I found the path to order individual chassis parts from Corsair Support and bought a couple of new ones.

I am seriously looking for a couple of the stock white 120mm LED fans from a Corsair 500R case.  The ones on the front with the annoying "special" connectors that everyone replaces?  Well, I didn't replace mine, and I am modding the case and need a couple more.

So, if you or someone you know has the original fans from a Corsair 500R, I'd happily buy them, or trade a couple of nice fans from my stupidly-large collection of case fans.  Heck, I probably have some novelty keycaps worth trading for a couple of fans you were going to toss out anyhow.

Hit that e-mail icon and drop me a note if you have a couple of these that work and you'd like to send my way.

Thanks in advance!

I like keyboards and case modding.  Everything about a computer should be silent -- except the KEYBOARD!

Corsair sells fans.  Are they not the same ones?

Nope. These are special fans with wierd wiring that integrates with the fan and LED controls built into the 500R. They also don't seem to sell them as service spares.
