JH, Those standoffs do not have a lot of extra thread length, but they will fit if everything is positioned correctly. Check first to determine if there is any gap between the PC board and the rear panel - there should be none at all. You may have the DB9 connector mounted at a slight angle which will not only give difficulty with the standoffs, but will cause problems later when you try mounting on the heat sink if it is not corrected. I will leave it unsaid (out loud at least) how I came to know that tid-bit of info <G>.
