Wow, thanks for all the responses guys!
Now thats one serious piece of CP hardware. I've never seen that part before. Its surprising that its cheaper than the simpler looking trackball plates. Unfortunately Happ has a $25 minimum order.
I have a drill press so I'm gonna try to create some countersunk bolt holes in the existing plate. The trackball excepts flathead screws already. Worse thing that can happen is I have to buy the uber plate from Happ if I trash this one. I just have to find bolts now.

I believe divemaster127 can get almost anything from Happ's catalog. His thread is in the B/S/T forum

So I've just ordered and received the Super High Trackball Install Kit from GGG. It was cheaper than any other mounting method out there. From the way it looks it's pretty high quality. Between that and a TrackBall Booster Kit from them as well I think I've given this trackball as much function as possible. I'm pretty stoked. The CP is going to be crafted tomorrow.
One idea I had:
I was thinking about trying to install a Fushigi Ball in place of a standard trackball. They have both glow-in-the dark and acrylic-over-metal balls. They are 3" big per the website. 20 dollars @ Wally World and no shipping. What do you think? Has anyone tried this?
