Since the joystick I want to use does no fit on the mount of my 1L6B panel, I had to modify the mounting plate.

Glad I got a p1 harness mit JVS joystick mount lying around. was perfect for that joystick!

The process was quite easy: Align the plate, mark the cuts you want to make with a sharpie, drill out these parts with a trusty Dremel, then screw it in.

This is the second plate I modified like that. It is not the prettiest mod, but it surely does the job.
