2:Grab an original Batarang-style Saturn Pad and open both. Desolder, swap and solder the shoulder button actuators on both PCBs. Put the USB PCB inside the Saturn Pad shell, and vice-versa. Don't mix the buttons or gummy thingies.
3:Presto. You now have a fully working USB Saturn pad with the quality and responsiveness we all know and love, and a crappy spare pad you can use for RPGs or non-twitch games on your Saturn. Not a lot of technical know-how is necessary, and you don't have to know much about soldering besides how NOT to burn yourself. No need to buy one of those expensive original USB Sega pads, either.

Where did all the SLS USB Saturn pads go? Hundreds of them were for sale on eBay awhile back, apparently nobody's selling them now? I even remember the thread on SRK, trying to figure out if they were fakes. I picked up two for under $20.

actually these gummy thingies were the weakpoint of my (unofficial?) SLS USB Saturn pads: both broke literally under the A-button, so these buttons ceased to funktion...
