Anyone deconstruct a X-Arcade Trackball?

I've been researching building my own cabinet, and want to install a USB trackball.  However, finding a decent USB trackball is looking a little pricey.  Has anyone deconstructed a X-Arcade Trackball?  Since it has USB support, I was thinking getting one, removing the trackball and installing it on my cabinet.

Anyone successfully done this or know if it's feasible?  Seems like the cheapest option for a decent USB trackball for my cabinet, perhaps someone has a better or cheaper solution?

Thanks!

If you really want an X-Arcade trackball they sell them separately on their website..  I believe that they are Beston Imperials.

True, but the trackball by itself on the website is $59.95 and the Trackball CP is $49.95!

You can easily disassemble the X arcade trackball unit for the trackball, interface and buttons.   I think it is direct mounted under the CP with screws in a routered area.   I think someone did this but cannot find the thread.  It is one of the cheapest ways to go with the sale/rebate.
