Where can I get a white Sanwa button?

They're very common with shoot 'em up and fighting game fans, mainly because of the fact it has no springs to push the button back up (it uses the spring in the microswitch itself), so after loads of button pressing, your fingers don't get as tired.

would removing the spring from a regular happs button feel similar.. I've never even thought of trying that..

I just tried that
now it only uses the microswitch's spring to pop it back..
it definately made the button lighter to press so I'm definately going to do this with my competition stick.. but it's still not as light as a Sanwa I think.. the microswitch red-button is actually a lil stiff
the springless button is definately a little looser but probably a lot better

i never get tired on my happs buttons.. dunno what the big rage over the light press buttons are, but i really hate those sanwa buttons.. o_O

Yeah, it does seem to be one of those "you either love it or hate it" kinda things. I've even heard people say that sanwa buttons and joysticks feel like broken happs stuff ???. Crazy!
