Looking for a trigger stick (or replacement/repro handle kit) from a Tron, Satan's Hollow or Xenophobe cab. My top choice would be the Satan's Hollow stick as my cab colors will be red and gold, but any will do. I'm not picky about the stick working or not as I can use the parts to hack together a stick of my own, and again, repro handles are ok too... but I'm not looking to spend more than $30 here.
Thanks in advance...

If you don't find any takers here, be patient and keep your eyes on Ebay. I managed to snag a Xenophobe joystick for around $30 which was a steal compared to any Tron-related stuff.

I have a complete Aquajack joystick I may be convinced to part with.. (You could do a Wingman Extreme hack since they're both analog sticks) or just use the shell..
it's used, and after I washed the plastics, you can see the colour is a little faded , but if you're interested I could take some pics for you..
let me know..

Sure, if you can PM me pics I'd like to take a look, the pics I can find of Aquajack cabs make me think that'd be a better looking set of handles for me anyway (as long as they're not faded to pink! lol) If you could also PM me how much you're interested in selling for... Thanks a bundle :)

hmm..upon further examination, it is a little pinkish on the back, but i'm almost guessing it's a side effect of washing with dish soap and warm ewater..cause it didn't look like that before i'd washed it.. a little c-pop or whatever protectant should make it look better..
i'll post the pics here:http://members.shaw.ca/space_harrier/index.htm (http://members.shaw.ca/space_harrier/index.htm)
(right at the bottom of the page)
all the switches click like they should, (the ground wire needs to be stuck back on the trigger switch tho' - got a soldering iron? :-)
not sure what it's worth (can't even remember what *I* paid for it..:-)
So make an offer if you still want it..

Also consider what games you want to play...
many have a restrictors on the bottom to make them basically 4way only (you CAN get diagonals on trons... but you have to work at it)...
this makes them kinda suck for all other games.
NOTE: mine, you can take the actuator out... but then its very loose.. I'm considering trying to build my own restrictor that allows diagonals... but I don't expect it to be worth my time really.

lilwolf- the red restrictor is larger and square, not small and diamond shaped like on a tron. 8 ways are not a problem. (a benefit of not using the tron base..:-)
also, the stick is analog like on a logictech wingman extreme, not leaf switches like on a tron.
