'mountable' USB hub and/or extender?

Hi all,

I'm looking for a USB hub and/or USB extender that can be mounted on the front of my control panel.   Does such a thing exist?  I thought it would be easy to find one.  However, I'm having absolutely no luck. 

The intent is to have 2 USB ports available on the front of the control panel to plug various controllers into ( USB hacked console controllers, LCD topguns, etc..).

Any ideas on where to look?

Thanks!

why not just buy a couple of the USB ports that slot into the PCI panels on the back PC's

often they come with motherboards, etc, you can get them at computer fayres / swap meets.

buy a normal USB hub, crack it open and solder the wires onto the ports, then mount them!!

otherwise, they are available in professional fittings, I've lost the link tho :-(

You can easily make a real USB port for your cabinet for under $10.
