PCB mounting hardware

PCB mounting hardware

(OP)
I have a PCB that I need to right-angle mount to a front panel.  Does anybody have any recommendations for PCB mounting hardware vendors?  

I expect I'll end up with a rectangular cube that is about 0.25" (6 mm) square and 0.5" (12 mm) long with a hole tapped in one end and on one side.  Something like a Keystone 1647 (http://www.keyelco.com/pdfs/p61.pdf) could work; I'm not thrilled with the length or the tap size so I'm looking for other options.  

In a previous life (job) I knew of a company who produced things like this.  I'll post that vendor once I find/remember their name.  

Vertical standoffs are fairly easy to come by; any mechanical vendor like McMaster-Carr or Grainger has a lot to offer.  

Thanks,
