US EX corner button issue (again) - maybe other possible fix

Ok, I'm no wiring guru, but maybe someone on here is.

I've read the "fixes" for the corner buttons for CF and RO pads. But they seem pretty crude and invasive (who wants to dissect their $300 pad?)

So, what about those inexpensive extender cables you can buy for your PS2 controllers. Many of us have them for pads with short cables anyhow. Couldn't they have "surgery" performed on them instead to disable the corner buttons..at least the rear corners? Then you could plug any pad into the extender and square/triangle would be dead and no playing dr. on the pad.

I dunno, is it possible? Does anyone know the anatomy of the wiring inside your basic PS2 controller cabling, and which wire(s) would knock out square & triangle and can maybe shed some light on this.

Here's an idea. Learn to play differently so you don't a problem with hitting the corner buttons.

Hey thanks! for nothing.

1.) I'm addressing this not only for myself, but for the countless others who dislike the issue and want it resolved somehow.

2.) Maybe I use mod'd pads. Any maybe when I step on an arrow, the depression around it sometimes triggers the corner button, but dance play settings have always taken care of this problem, until EX.

Talk about speaking when you have nothing nice to say.

Please use the current corner button fix thread. We don't need every possible incarnation of it.
