Drat! I just downloaded the manual and indeed...
Mounting the front panel on the main board was the only part I did NOT like 
when putting the K3 together. I was glad to jump that hurdle but now we need 
to do it again.
I think it is a tricky situation and I feared I might had bent a pin. The 
headers connect really tight so you need to apply some force. It's hard to 
see if both the headers are aligned head to head. When misaligned and 
unleashing manpower...

I'm hoping to find several places on the chassis to draw a thin line with a 
fine marker so I can see the alignement between both parts when 
reassembling. Or is there an easy way to align the headers in both planes 
and visually check before pushing?
