Will the Ultimarc 2 1/4" Trackball accept a Happs Translucent ball?

Postalp:

The design of my cabby calls for a Glowing Red Trackball, I want to keep the price down as much as possible so I am planning on getting an Ultimarc 2 1/4" Trackball device over a Happs Trackball due to the $60 price diff. ($30 vs. $90)

My question is, will a Happs Translucent replacement ball be compatible with the Ultimarc device?

Also, I know that the Happs brand of Trackballs have an opening in the bottom for a Lamp or LED to backlight their Translucents, but do the Ultimarc trackballs have the same hole or do I have to bore one out?

Bgnome:

bob roberts has a 2.25" translucent red ball that should work fine:

I'm planning on doing the exact same thing, i would love to know if i can use a translucent ball in my ultimarc trackball also.  i dont see why a simple modification if there is no hole available wouldnt be a problem.  Just drill a hole somewhere if it doesnt already have one.  I get my package today so ill keep you posted.
