Title: Ball-tops for p360?
Post by: Sapper on April 28, 2004, 10:06:06 pm

Does anyone know if the Happ p360 handles can be replaced with ball-tops-the regular kind (ie not slikstiks)?  If so, where can they be acquired (not including ebay when an auction happens to arrive)?  

I'd love to replace the paddle handles on mine with some sweet black ball-tops.

Thanks

Robotron handles fit the Perfect 360 exactly.  They're the ones with longer 4 inch shafts, unlike the stubby little pac-man type.

I think they're fairly common, particularly on ebay.  I know Oscar uses them in his P360's and loves them.  Maybe he could point you in the right direction.

There are robotron-length repro shafts available here:

I've never ordered from them before, but I imagine other folks here have.

Thanks for the tips...but $25 + shipping for a set of handles--ouch!   :o

I'll have to keep my eyes open for a set of black ones somewhere (and hopefully cheaper)...

cheers
