Multi-williams Defender "reverse" button question/joystick mod.

(1/2) > >>

GaryMcT:
What 8-way joysticks are easily modifiable such that you can put a button as close to the stick as they are on an original Defender machine with the two-way stick?  I've heard of people doing this, but I'm curious what sticks they use?

GaryMcT:
Found it in this thread!

Modding a U360 to be usable with a Defender reverse button next to it looks pretty easy.  I'm starting to feel a single-player panel brewing. :)

Bender:
actually the U360 would be easier (it's a regular JLW in that thread) because you don't have to worry about the microswiches
so theoretically you could put it even closer

i assume you can place a 360 in any orientation , and use the mapping.
that other thread requires cutting the plate im wondering if putting a u360 in the other orientation will remove the need for trimming the plate
