MY suggestion would be to cut out the triangular hole, drill out the
cable channels and install a working system that moves with the
control stick. Only a suggestion mind you . . . . .

What I have done tho is cut out the triangular hole and srcape a small
ledge around to fit a small piece of clear acetate on the clear side and a
thin piece of styrene on the other. Don't putty the clear side, but do the
opaque side.
