: : : Sorry bout' that, I guess I didn't read the whole thing. Anyway, I don't know of any arcade quality buttons that will 'lock' into place (without the use of a spilled soda). It might not look quite as well, but you could try a low profile rocker switch to switch between turbo and no turbo. It wouldn't quite look the same, but I would imagine that the turbo buttons wouldn't be getting used as much as the regular ones anyway...

: : + That's cool man - sorry if i sounded a little snappy there. I had just been searching so many sites and coming up with nothing. I have determined that i'll either (a) use the actual little tiny latching buttons from the actual Advantage sticks, or (b) go with the rocker switch idea like you said. you know, i think i've seen switches like that with lights in them too... off to radio schmuck!!!

: I think they do have toggle switches with lights in them, 12V lightup auto toggle switch, or something like that..

: : Advert: Radio Schmuck - You've got money, We've got pockets.

: I go to RS and they ask *me* questions, like "What's that for?" and "What's your name?". BTW, if you don't want to tell them your name, just say that you don't want to be on their mailing list.

It seems like every time I go there I end up training one of their employees on something. When I walk in and they ask if they can help me find something I say no and they look at me like I'm a jerk. Then I ask them for something and they say they don't know what it is. But they've got a fairly good selection of stuff, even if you have to find it yourself.
