you would have to rout out the bottom a bit, or put a spacer inbetween the joystick and the panel, or just increase the diameter of the existing hole so the head can actually pass through as intended. Taking apart the joystick isn't nearly as trivial as with an american stick (if you go with either of the first two options), but i think you'd definitely be able to do it if you set your mind to it. you'll also have to trim off the excess plastic for the alternate screws on the suzo base.
