Now I am up to date with my posting and no longer doing this retrospectively. Not being a modder I dont own a Dremel or intend on sinking £50 into one that I will use the grand total of once. So I have spent plenty of time trying to get rid of the plastic pegs on the bottom of the case. First I tried a lighter and a knife which ended horribly. Then snapping them off with pliers but that cracked the case underneath so that was no good. Then a sander but that would have taken days to do. In the end I used an electric drill with a massive drill bit which worked very much to my satisfaction.
In fact I got a bit carried away and drilled out a few of the pegs I shouldn't have... The stumps illustrated in this picture below are all the ones you should leave as they are the ones that prop up the power switch.
I realise how poor the finish is on them and that the 'T' shape is still in the middle but again, I dont know for sure how to go around doing that until I get the components in the case and see what is visible/how well it fits.
