In inches, fracs are 5 1/4 inches tall and euro is 5.05 inches. So there
will be some adaptation required, in which you'll have to take into account
that the mounting holes for frac are a considerable distance form the edge
of the faceplate and the rails may be be too close together to allow the
euro pcbs to pass through them top to bottom.  It may not be a concern,
but...you might want to look into this.
