It might be possible, depending on the case, to take your customer's
front panel and mount it on a new ATX case. I was able to do that when I
switched from AT to ATX case, and everything lined up. I was lucky
though, that I had a standard layout for the bays, etc. which allowed me
to do that. Of course you would have to change the power switch on your
customer's front panel over from push-on-push-off to a momentary switch
for ATX.
