It is often easier to improvise using parts from old Microsoft products than to find the 'official' replacement--open up that old USB controller or defunct wireless mouse and look for the parts that look familiar or similar.

I just fixed the bottom half of my POV hat by pulling one of the switches off of an old 8-button Microsoft game controller; I have also cannibalized the odd mouse for parts (although the reason one usually discards a mouse is because the left click button is worn out...).

cheers
