Create room for a Wi-Fi antenna on a PC using the space intended for a Serial COM or VGA socket. 

My use case came about when I found my Lenovo m92p computer included a Wi-Fi card with a two antenna option but was only outfitted with one. This cut my bandwidth in half and would be even more wasteful when I upgraded to a more modern Wi-Fi 6 card. Adding the bracket let me mount another antenna neatly to the back of the case.

Requires 2x M3 nuts and 2x M3*≥3 bolts.

Should be printed with the side containing the nut cut-outs facing up.
