No, dont think he has a website although he was very prompt with his email. Just some guy who offered to sell me one from the other forum. I figured what the hell, its only $9.

I paid him through paypal and got it in pretty quick. Its perfect and all I needed was some glue or whatever to make it stick. Comes in pack of two. With the way these are packaged, seems like he is getting them from the manufacturer or something. like spare parts or something.

In any case, I am happy.

LOL probably works there and is 'borrowing office supplies' to sell online. Oh well, what do they expect if you cant get a replacement from your carrier. Verizon made me send the entire phone back to them because I called and complained about this awhile back. Got a new phone, but man what a pain in the ass for a little piece of rubber!

what kind of glue would work best. I don't want to spread super glue on it only to find I can't replace it again.

just ordered from him too. He's shipping them tomorrow.

Thanks

don't let super glue get in the little hole in the bottom of the joystick though, or you'll be wishin' you hadn't...

Re: AWESOME!! Found a replacement for the joystick rubber

Sorry to dig up an old thread. I emailed this guy about a week ago with no response. Anyone have another source for the rubber joystick pads? Thanks.
