In need of someone to build a custom DC controller for me

I have a Dreamcast Astropad which has very small boards and would easily fit in a Saturn controllers casing but I really can't be bothered to build it right now. Would anyone be willing to make this controller for a reasonable price? I would supply the Astropad boards and the Saturn controller casing, the only thing special I would want to be done is for the c and z buttons to work like extra l and r and I would also want the dpad to function for the analogue stick with a switch to change between dpad and analogue. I wouldn't need VMU ports so you wouldn't have to figure that one out. Anyone up for the task preferably in Europe for cheaper shipping costs?

If I acept (evethough i'm in america) Would you like to have the astropad completely inside the genesis controller or as a host like I did for the Nes pad ?

How much would you give me for the job ? (beside shipping)
If I can get a saturn controller in my town would you like me to use it instead to save on shipping ?
It actually looks like an interesting challenge...
Oh, It'd almost certainly kill your saturn pad for anything else than DC games.

By extra L & R you mean simply FULL-PRESSED Land R ?

I think I could actaully amke a diagram for the switching between analog and dpad controls by putting a switch on their common ground.

Also, I have a few free time, so it may take a lil' while since I'm at school. (but I'd do it don,t be afraid

)

I would want the entire dc controller in the saturn shell. I want the l r c an z to work like the madcatz controller so either set works. I want to use my parts to save cost since my dad would pay shipping anyway and i need a use for the shell and dc controller plus I'm painting the saturn case white. Name a price and I'll say what I Think.

I'll try to check a saturn controller to compare size and feasibility and I'll get back to you !

I can't find a saturn controller in my area to check out, and I couldn't find time to do the mod anyway because of college, so feel free to "hire" anybody else.

Sorry about that !
