I would wire in 3 buttons to the left of the trackball.

2 of which would be from the optipac and be the 2 mouse buttons.

Then you can play Golden Tee PC!

How about you run some of the existing buttons to the optipac instead of the ipac?  Mame already recognizes the first and second mouse buttons as P1 buttons 1 and 2, so you wouldn't even have to reconfigure much.  Just make sure every game starts with the mouse input option, and you're good to go.
