The rear and top fans attach using normal metal fan screws.

I'd recommend mounting with something to help dampen/isolate them like those rubber ones. Been meaning to do this myself but still haven't gotten around to it.

If you want to softmount, Jab-tech sells some isolators for around $1.30 for a pack of 4. I don't know how good they are vs. Verax's (which is more expensive, but better than the commonly used EAR mounts).

Just dont buy the Sunbeam ones... Zap and a few others have had major problems with them.
