All I need is the handle, I would assume it would be used. I can trade
you 2 red ones for a black one.

Time Pilot just doesn't look right with a red joystick handle...

Thanks,

I have a box full of joystick handles - what's a Wico one look like? or
what are it's dimensions?

I don't have any measurements or anything, but what I'm referring to is
your pretty much standard ball-top joystick, found in many games from
the 80's, to be used in a leaf-switch joystick... I can take a picture
of what I'm trying to replace tonight...

Ah - I'm pretty sure all of mine are the bat-type, not ball. I'll check
to make sure though, You *might* be able to use some vinyl dye and dye
it black. I have used vinyl dye on a few things and it's great. I am
using it now on some speaker wire that I need to be black. Just a
thought. Not sure if the ball is the right material to allow the dye ot
soak in or not. I have an old red ball here - once I finish with the
speaker wire I'll see if it works on the ball.
