4x M2x8mm screws are used to attach the cap to the stalk, the stalk to the LowerBody (losely, so it can still move/flex to actuate buttons), and the upper body to the housing/shell of your controller. 2x M2x16mm screws are used to attach the lower body to the upper body.

The shell needs a 7.8mm (or larger) clearance hole for the stalk, and two countersunk holes for countersunk M2x8mm bolts into the UpperBody, on a 13.5mm diameter bolt circle.

The bottom of the cap has a 5.65mm square hole set 2mm deep to capture the
