First pics are the buttons on a PSi3:




This one is the 12 pin connector for attaching the extra sensors:



They look like fairly standard-ish pc componements, but I suppose if you don't know the proper terms, it makes it that bit harder.

cheers

Surely just easier to replace the remote? That part will be specifically made for the ps3 remote, so I'd imagine they'll be hard to come by

You can get the connectors from RS Components:

That green strip is sometimes called a Phoenix connector.

Anyone know where I can get the push button switch in the picture?
I tried the RS link a year ago, but couldn't see it then. They have over 2000 switches on the site, and you can only view 20 items at a time.

Unsolder the switch and see if it has a manufacturer's name?

Failing that, use a switch that fits and build up the plastic on the button with something to support the facial button at the right height?

After saying all that, why not just fix the current switch? It looks like it just need some support?
