I suppose so, but I just wondered if there was a specific tutorial for the JLW's. There is almost no difference between the width of the mounting plate and the switches underneath. It looks like a tough mount. The JLF's look easy.

VanillaGorilla:
JLW is just like the u360. same top mounting plate anyway. Have a look at my thread in my signature, I essentially did this by fabricating an oversized aluminum mounting plate, and bolted the stick in from underneath. Works perfectly. Even better, you can easily remove the entire stick from below without disrupting cpo graphics if done this way.

DataWest:
Thanks!

You can use one of these mounting plates, cut out a square opening and just route so it then sits flush and then its like mounting the joystick in a metal panel.

If you are going to cover your control panel with plexi, I would agree, this is the way to go. If you are going to cover in polycarbonate vinyl, like something from gameongrafix.com, I would fab your own. The Ms. Pac mount is very recessed,and leaves quite a bit of 'void'. It also expects top mounted carriage bolts, so if you don't want those on your control panel, thats something to consider too.
