Best way to get sanwa jlf on versus city cp?

[brad808]

So I have a Versus City control panel with Seimitsu LS-32 joystick that I'm coming to realize isn't the joystick for me. I'm trying really hard to like it, and have been trying since October but it's just not happening. There is a whole lot of  going on. I'd like to install a jlf, which I know I like, into the control panel as a replacement.

The problem I'm facing is that Versus City control panels are made specifically for the ls-32 and as far as I can tell leave no way to mount a sanwa jlf.

The only options I'm really seeing here are to modify the control panel by removing the brackets for the ls-32 and putting carriage bolts right through the top of it (really like to avoid this method for aesthetic reasons), trying to modify the mounts some way, trying to modify the joystick someway, sell or trade the versus city panel for a sanwa blast/astro panel.

Does anyone know any other options? Any brackets I could use?

The only jlfs that I have are in a wood control panel that would need to be completely disassembled for them to be removed so unfortunately it's a little difficult to see what can be modified and what can't be without buying a new joystick first.
