Thanks!
I understand the diagram you sent and tried to install it but still, I think there is a piece missing, because when I position the pieces and put the C ring at the end, it all seems very loose, and I don't get the normal functionality, the clicks and all.
just so you know, I'm trying to install it on a Multicade Panel I purchase from ebay which goes with the kit. is one of those Black metal panels. Is it possible, that maybe I have to have the Metal Panel installed on top of a 3/4 plywood base when installing the joystick?
