might not fit to the topic actually but at work today I cut out a 120x120 square with an angle grinder, polished the sharp edges and then put on some edge protection like rubber band with some metal in it. Cut four pieces in a 135° angle so two of them build a 90° angle in the corners. Looks better than I expected and it also lowered cpu temperature around 5°. My Case is not very high, so a Mugen wouldnt fit but right now the kabuto fan is like 10mm under that square I cut out.
And like I said to all those who have mounting problems,try it from different sides, if there's enough space in the case not much force is needed to mount the kabuto correctly, for me it was very hard to mount it in the "best performance" postion because my psu is at the top of my case and I couldn't put in the psu after I mounted the heatsink cause there was no space left, so I had to mount the kabuto with the psu right in front of the damn clip, that was really really hard and took a while but finally it worked although I pushed down those clips with much force...
