How do I use these Replacement N64 Joysticks?
Okay, these are tons cheaper than the ones that actually have the plug at the end of the wires. I'm not asking about quality, I just want to know how to install these. Does anyone know? Do you just take the blue plug from the old joystick and put the wires in it? I have no idea what i'm talking about, so please bear with me.

You might be able to, but it would probably be easier to just solder the joysticks in place. But, you can try to remove the connector and put it on that one
Alright well, cant find it but......assuimg your looking at the joystick from the bottom and the board from the back....
The pins that you would plug the connector in to are just
1, 2, 3, 4 Left to right
The bottom of the joystick if seated in properly is...

Don't bother trying to put the connector on the end. Just solder them to the 4 pins. I had the pin out somewhere I'll find it for you.

I appreciate the help. I'm not very handy at all. Whenever I get the joysticks in, I'll for sure shoot you a message if I run into trouble. Sounds simple enough though
