Woohoo! I got a golden tee golf trackball for $10!
Timstuff:
I just made by first official BYOAC related purchase! Congratulate me! ;D
I found an excellent site that takes you through the mouse hacking process step by step. I can't wait to get started once mine arrives. :)

Wow! Congrats. $10 is a good deal (if it's not all rusted out) Where'd you get it?
Timstuff:
I got it on ebay from a respectable seller. It looks like it's in good condition other than a little bit of wear on the outside of the encasement, and all the wires appear to be in good condition.
krick:
Sounds like you got a good deal.
If you follow that guy's instructions, don't chop the connector off the trackball harness. Get the correct mating connector and make an adapter.
He's like one of those people who installs a car stereo by chopping the factory radio connector off the car's wiring harness instead of buying the correct adapter harness. That burns me up.
Timstuff:
Yeah, I'll try to find the proper connector instead of chopping up the thing.
I'm not sure about mounting it though. I could just buy a mounting plate, but his method of raising the ball looks kind of interesting. Does having a higher ball help the gameplay signifigantly? Or should I just do it the typical way and have the ball lower?
