flush mount plastic 9v battery holder/compartment with cover?
 
Does anyone know where you can order a plastic 9v battery holder with
a snap off cover that flush mounts in a project box, guitar body, etc?
It would be like the AA battery holder in this Synsonics Terminator
guitar except for 9v:

So far for a 9v battery, the closest thing I have found is this:

except this doesn't have a lip that would allow you to cut a hole in a
project box (or in my case a guitar body) and screw it in so it mounts
almost flush to the surface of the box (maybe about 1/8" or 2/8" would
project out from the surface, the lesser the profile the better).
Also, the cover slides off to the side but I am looking for one where
the cover lifts off straight up (again to facilitate mounting).

Any tips appreciated!

And it's only $4.

It doesn't really lend itself to mounting in a guitar body like the
examples he gave but it might work for what he wants, and why didn't you
say so in the first place, why did it take someone else goading you in
to it after you made some snide comment about someone else's positive
suggestion?

Because I figured someone else might have the wits to look in the Mouser
catalog "in the first place".I had assumed that everyone checks
Mouser/Digikey,etc. My bad.
That was the first place I looked,and the first example I found.I'm sure
there are other sources,if ya look around a bit.

$16 for a battery holder is robbery,IMHO.

Those will work. The $11 one is a better deal, you can get your own
battery snap for pennies...
Thanks!
