my j-sticks and e-stick are great for 4 and 8 way. the prob with the j-stick tho is the reach. it is too hard to hit the micro's in pac-man quick enough, luckily my e-stick resolves that problem

well ive already drilled all the holes in my cp today.  and its layout is 3 joysticks w/buttons across the cp.  i just drilled a regular hole for the super 8 that will be my 4 way joystick, so if i ever want to convert, then i can find a router some where and cut the square.  but i guess ill just have to settle for a while.  this is my first cab, so its not that big of a deal i guess.

I went over to Oscars and I can't find the price or part list for the mounting plate to order.  I did find this template

It is on the price and ordering info page. Scroll down about half way and it says "Joystick Mounting Plate". You have the option of Black Dimpled, primer or blank. Price of $15. Can't miss it. Good luck.

Who needs a router or a jigsaw? I don't have either. I cut my square hole out using a freaking drill and a drill bit. I have done this multiple times in the past too.

Then put a piece of sheet metal over the hole. Install the stick to the sheet metal. I used a rather thick piece that I found laying around.

Ahh!  Found it.  Thanks.  You actually have to shop to see it!  Any way to plug the extra holes as I only want it for the mspacman/galaxia joystick. Or are they not a factor?
