I have an Antec SX635BII case. It has 3 full size exposed drive bays,
but Antec only supplied two pairs of drive bay adapters. I'm talking
about those rails you screw to the sides of the drive so it will slide
in from the front and snap into place -- then by pressing on the front
tangs/ears of these adapters the drive is released so it slids out the
front.

I have two different styles from other cases. The two are different
and neither works in the Antec case, so apparently these are custom
made for each case design. The Antec drive bays don't provide for
screwing the drive in place so I have to have another pair to use the
third bay. The drive has to be installed by next Tuesday morning.
There's not enough time to order some from Antec and I won't have a
chance to install it after Sunday night anyway. Who carries these
things? That is, where can I get a pair this weekend.

I see you are from Houston, there are a few mod shops over there, but I
don't remember the names right now. What about Altex? Have you tried them?
High as a cat's back, but atleast in your hometown.

There are two places you should contact:

1. The place you bought the case from

2. Antec itself
