As first seen here (from me at least): https://twitter.com/makhowastaken/status/1509588844152119309

And I believe this is the specific part I used: https://lcsc.com/product-detail/Tactile-Switches_Yuandi-TS-1080S-A3B3-D1_C499295.html

Though there may be better parts. A switch that requires more force would be interesting to try, as would a slightly taller one. It requires more experimentation that I will not be doing.

All in all, this is a surprisingly decent controller otherwise. I won't buy more to replace them but I don't hate them either. These controllers are very clearly built to hit a price point though and it does show. Since I have OEM Switch Pro controllers, I will continue to use those instead. 

I did both the bumper and "trigger" buttons even though I only needed to do the trigger for my specific controllers. The bumpers were still working fine but I wanted both shoulder buttons to feel the same instead of one having a clicky button and the other having a membrane. It worked out well, I think, especially because the alternative was e-waste.
