Title: Anyone sell DDR'ish select buttons??
Post by: DataWest on May 24, 2011, 11:45:52 am

I had a hard time trying to find a pic of them but if you look at the bottom left corner you can see them here

They light up too. Anyone sell buttons similar to those? I'd love to have a set on the front of my cab.

You'll probably want to buy from e.g. Divemaster127 on here since Happ's shipping is outrageous.

The Happ buttons are close to, but not exactly like the buttons on DDR.  If you're trying to replace the ones on DDR, they may not fit quite right.  The ones on DDR are Sanwa Denshi parts.  The arrow buttons should be model OBSA-30US.

Thanks!

What about the square button in the middle though?

Happ has those, too. Again, they're not an exact fit in DDR, but they're very close.  http://www.happcontrols.com/pushbuttons/5700045x.htm (http://www.happcontrols.com/pushbuttons/5700045x.htm)

They also have other shapes: http://www.happcontrols.com/pushbuttons/ilumn3.htm (http://www.happcontrols.com/pushbuttons/ilumn3.htm)

As with the triangles, the actual DDR part is made by Sanwa Denshi.  They're probably higher quality, but then they'll also cost about 3-5x as much as Happ to get them outside of Japan.
