The mesh sleeving are all neon yellow. The IDE cables are UV sensitive with a silver mesh. Usually the IDE cables come in silver or copper mesh. All the sleeving on the power supply were all done by Performance-pcs. After buying the power supply and seeing how it was one I've could have easily done it myself if I took the the. That way I've could of gotten a power supply for far better price. It looks like Performance-pcs. used 1/4" and 3/4" sleeving. If you want to do ALL the other sleevings in the case, you would need probably 20ft. of 1/8" and 10ft. of 1/4" that's not including the wires on the PSU.

If you notice, all the sleevings are bright. I have four 12" cold cathodes. That's right four. You can see where I put two of them, but the other two are well hidden at the top of the case. If you look at the picture of the PSU with the biohazard grill, you can actually get a glimse of the cold cathode light purple. I put those there so the top half of the case would also react to the UV.

The most important thing is wire management. This case was great to use. The side pane on the MOBO side comes off very easy, just like the window side. That's where I ran all the power cables including the MOBO cable. Here's a pic.of the other side of the case. There's even room for two of my cold cathode's inverters. If you look closely to the pics. you can see that I also ran my exhaust, 12V power and the 4" cold cathodes wire in the back. Of course the wires aren't long enough to begin with. That's where you got to do some cutting and splicing to make your wires longer.

Back to your question. For the molex extractor, I honestly don't know which to use. But if you call the company up and tell them that you want to extract some molex pins from a Computer PSU they'll know which one you need. I did call them before, cause I was planning to buy crimpers, extractor, and more molex pins. But the cost was run me $60-70. I hope this helps on how to build your unit. Let me know if you run across any problems or if you need some help. I like to see your final mod.
