    How would i go about mounting a Laing DDC pump (any version of it) without doing permament modifications to the case?

    Are there any brackets available that'd allow me to mount it in 2 internal 3.5" spots or a single 5.25"? I haven't found anything like that in Hungary so i'm all willing to go international.

    Thanks in advance.

    I believe there are neoprene adhesive pads for it available widely.
    Failing that, you could always try some strong double-sided tape.

    I'm assuming this is what you meant by 'no permanent modifications'?

    Yeah, that could work. Not the most elegant solution but it could definitely work! Thanks for the reply.

    My idea was to take an old CD drive apart, and use double sided 3M tape to stick it to the CD drive case.

    Best thing I've found for anti-vibration that even beats neoprene is the white high denisty foam that you often find in packaging. If not then neoprene is probably your best bet coupled with some double sided tape. You can mount it nearly anywhere then.

    you can see various mounting options here

    or you can get a new top for your pump and increase the perfromance and make it drive mountable at the same time. LINK

    Thank you! That's exactly what i was looking for.
    I think i'll go with one of the EK Water Blocks DDC tops, because those even allow me to use standard 1/4" fittings.

    That site is great, nice inventory, too bad most of the describtions are in german.
