Button's won't go in, but that's not that huge of a deal. I didn't expect them to anyway. However, the normal Xbox stick won't go in either. It's ever so slightly too big. The only way I could possibly get it in is if I somehow grinded the edges down but even then it still might not..blah.
Going through deleting inactive accounts of mine as a security precaution. No hard feelings, but admins, if it is possible to delete this account, please do so. Thanks in advance!

I mentioned it in a earlier post, but if your looking for grip try this stuff called Plasti Dip. It comes in a spray or dip and can be bought for less than $7.00 in most cases at Lowes. Its strong and grippy as hell when you buy the matte finish. And if your sick of it, you can peel it off. Most people use it as a tool dip for tool handles like pliers.

Yeah, the dude that did mine for me had to shave away the edges to make it fit. Do you have an electric sander for cars you could sand down the edges with?

This guy kinda tells what he did to make his work, give it a look it might be helpful to you.
