49-Way Grommet Replacement
<< < (3/3)
markrvp:
I talked to Tornado Terry and he says he is selling the 49-way grommets for $7.50.  That's a great price as I recently paid ten bucks for a Wico grommet.

If you have Midway 49-way joysticks or Wico 8-way leafswitch joysticks - you can replace the grommet with this new one and use one of RandyT's 49-way Versaball shafts.  This is a great way to get a ball-top on a Midway 49-way or to get a longer ball-top shaft on a Wico joystick.

Tornado Terry's contact info is in the first post of this thread if you need to buy a new one.

I picked up a pair of grommets from Terry as well, and I haven't had a chance to give them a shot yet, but Mark's news is great news.

Fortunately, they will also let me use the ball-top sticks I bought from Randy may moons ago.  :)

Would any of these grommet work on the Midway 49-way joystick using the original sticks?
