This might be a dumb question, but how would add a trigger to a 360?

It's not a dumb question; it's one I'm trying to figure out a solution to.  Right now I'm thinking of a clamp-on grip, or perhaps one that slides over with foam rubber inside (like a bicycle handlebart grip) to keep it from moving.  As far as the trigger, the easiest but less clean solution is to have a tiny headphone-style jack on the control panel to plug it into; the better answer is a remote transmitter like one for a car, but I don't know if that would cycle fast enough for a game like Tron.

I thought all we really needed was a hallow shaft for either the 49-way or ultimate 360 sticks and a tank/trigger grip (like the repros Fozzy is working on) to somehow fit over it?
Chris:
Yeah, but in the meantime I'm trying to come up with a simple "add-on" for those like me who don't want Tron-style trigger sticks all the time (can you imagine playing Pengo or Pac-Man with one?).

 :)What about a Happ Top Fire stick for the four way?
RayB:
Does the shaft of a Wico handle fit in a P360? Does the shaft of a Super for that matter?

If yes to either question, then why not go for this:

(yeah Im all out, but if I can make one, you can make one! )
teef two:
To sum up once and for all how the eight way is hit with the four way restrictor, here's the explanation.

The tron joystick, and I have one at home so double checked this morning, has a huge red rubber grommet/washer thing on the bottom that enables both leaf switches to be pushed together when moving towards the, albeit limited, diagonals.
