"4play" had found a fan on ebay shipped to the door for under $30 bucks. After checking it out I pulled the trigger while it was still on sale. Here's a link to the seller on ebay - Click Here.

However the other holes have brass gourmets that when you try and tap they spin. I could not hold them even with Vice-Grips, okay I did on one and it broke the Gourmet off inside with the tap stuck into that part. I had to cut the tap off with a dremel and push ...
