Yeah, take the skins off and there are two "indentions" in the sides of the 
case to accomodate the width of the rails.  It's about 1/2" wide and 2" tall.  
It looks like a set of standard rails would physically fit in the space, but 
I'm not sure about bolt holes.  Easily cured with a drill, though :)

See page 16 of this for a teeny tiny view.. the "divet" in the top/right 
corner of the case that runs from front to back:

The "stop bracket" (see page 22 in above PDF) is something to consider... I 
have access to a metal fab shop at work, and I have a sample plate off an 
already-racked E250 to have them try to duplicate.
