Wico Joystick Leaf Switch needed !!!!

[Oldskool]

Dammit. I broke a tab off of one of my leaf switches.

Does anyone have an extra?

Centsibleamusements.com does sell them for 99 cents each, but they want a minimum order of $100.00 before they will ship out of country. (In my case, to Canada)    

Thanks.

Man, I hate that....I have a couple like that too.  I think I'm gonna solder short wires with male disconnects to mine from now on...

Well, I could buy 100 of them....

Do you happen to need 99 ?

On some of the used controls I aquired, I've seen leaf switches that have had thin metal pieces soldered to complete the connection or create a new tab for the quick disconnects.  The nice thing about leaf switches is that they don't need much pressure to be bent and activated. Solder is more than strong enough to hold them.

If you're talking about the ones here:

They're not for Wico joys.  I just picked some up (not from Centsible) and they don't fit my Wico leafs.

[Oldskool]

Yeah, that's them.

They don't fit? In which way? Could they be altered to fit?

Boy, they look like they're the same.

My Wico joys have a plastic tab that lays inline with the base of the switch, fitting into the little holes.  the holes are much smaller than the tabs on this plastic piece.  You might be able to widen them, I didn't try.

They're on my site.  Feel free to take them all off my hands.  I think shipping would be ~$2.50 to .ca (I think)

A PM is on it's way.
