WartHog throttle left thumb button replacements.

Like many of you I've had fairly good service from my Thrustmaster Warthog set up over the last five years but need to start replacing the 4 left thumb switches located down the right side of the throttle. I've rebuilt the 4 way comm switch using new omron Tactile switches, it was a faff but now works well. The three lower switches are definitely beginning to fail ie sticking or intermittent fails. The whole of the throttle side plate is easily removed to expose the wiring but the actual removal and replacement of the switches looks a bit of a challenge. Has anyone managed to remove these switches and what replacements might you recommend?. Going back to the fourway comm switch the parts are easy to fit and solder as long as you take photos as you go along but being made of plastic the three part barrel housing is inherently weak given the amount of use its likely to be subject to, has anyone found a good replacement/alternative?.

 

Keep well, Bob.
