Put them up for sale, give them away, or build a reservoir.

I like to keep a stock of materials, but my wife would tell you that I'm a pack rat...

You can build a res with simple silicone, if it's going to be open air.

If you're making a sealed box, you'd be better off with something stronger.

it might be better to get something more suited for the job, like some Weld-On.
you could make a window for the top of your case. you ccan also makes windows for:
your PSU!
your hdds!
your CD-ROMs!
your router / hub / cable / DSL modem!

lol

im assuming you meant add a top window. in that case:
you can paint ur PSU or put a sticker on it or add a separate window AND light to ur PSU (ive seen it done befor!)
you can add a separate (different color) light to the top half of the case.
round your IDE cables; give your power cables the "enermax treatment" to make them look nicer (thats what i did).

if you dig thru PC's news archives, you'll find a link to a "make your own plexi res" article. that should help you out if you do plan on making a lexan res.
