Motherboard Slot Extention?

Modder question: I am looking to build a very thin case-mod and wonder/cant find if a MB (PCI/Graphics/RAM) slot extention cable exists?
In my thin case-mod I do not have enough room (height) to have video and sound cards sticking up out of the motherboard. Is there such a thing as a PCI or Graphic Slot or RAM slot extention; that is, a male insert for the slot connected to a ribbon with a female end for the component?

PCI and friends here. For tiny casemods, mini-itx.com is your friend.
You won't find the same for RAM, the signaling's too crazy. But you can get low-profile RAM that won't stick up as far.
Mostly you won't get much thinner than 1 1/2" or so, which fits into a case that fits in a single rack unit.
