Thanks Bender, I could have just said "open up the switches with a blade"  but I like to show technique with pics it's clearer.  Those little switches have very small parts in them, split them open completely and they sproing out and get lost in the carpet etc.

Just used a tripod and a 10 second auto-timer on my camera, allows hands free picture taking  :)

Hilarious!!!  I was just looking at the same switches wondering if those leaves could be transplanted!!!  Thanks for the info!  I'll kill my other thread on this that I just started. :) :) :)

This makes me very happy.  I'll be doing this to my J-stick that got a tiny balltop and a 2-way restrictor from lizardlick today for a Stargate/Defender-ish control panel!

Thanks again for the info!

GaryMcT:
I'll be trying this tomorrow!  Thanks again Ond.

GaryMcT:
Hmmm, could maybe drill a tiny hole in the actuator so that they are still adjustable?

Did you move them over to completely silent beforehand?  Is there a trade-off in switching with them being completely silent?

Ond:
It's cool this works eh?  You will be very pleased with the result (as I was).  The switches were adjusted before fitting the actuator arms.  I wouldn't drill the arms it will weaken them (even a small hole).  Once they are adjusted to silent, no more adjustments are necessary.  I adjusted mine to the point where they just became silent.  I noticed no lack of performance in silent mode.  GGG warns against turning the adjustment screw too far.  Happy modding!
