I normally build pc's by placing the motherboard on top of the case i'm going to use (on it's anti-static mat of course) then attach all of the componetnts, once it's had a soak test I then proceed to fit it int the case as I'm fussy about my ccableing and like then all cable tied back to help airflow. Still have 100'2 of self adhesive anchors for cable ties from when I used to build pc's for a living. Seems so long ago though.

I'm thinking that as the front panel is detachable (and fully detached as its busted) that I would simply build the pc anyway then when the courior comes at work I'll whip the delivery upstairs rip open the box (telling him I'm checking it) then bring down the return having slipped in the duff front panel :-) jobs a winner fannies your aunt.
