Side fan in antec 902 with tuniq tower 120 extreme

EDIT: The best answer selected was incorrect, a side fan will not fit. Just tried

I have an Antec 902 case with a Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme fan on the CPU, the clearance between the side panel where another fan would be installed and the Tuniq fan seems rather small. I wanted to install a blue LED fan simply for looks, but I'm worried about whether or not it will fit. Does anyone know how big the fan would be/whether or not it would fit? Thanks

It will work the Tuniq 120 Ex. is only 150mm tall leaving enough room for a side fan.
I have a 902 and a 160mm tall cpu cooler and was close to being able to use a side fan.
Close but no dice.
You'll be fine though.

For anyone who has this problem in the future and uses this post to answer their question, I ordered a side fan for the case and it won't fit. Unfortunately, as Davcon said, close but no dice.

It makes me quite sad that I'd have to downgrade the cpu fan to put in another fan
