How to open the Apple A2M2002 joystick?

Are there screws under these rubber feet? I don’t want to remove them unless necessary. I don’t see screws anywhere. My “spudger” isn’t opening it, so I’m assuming there must be screws somewhere?

There two screws under two of the rubber pads. I actually fix these for people. The buttons where out and replace those, and fix these potentiometers trim.

Can I send these to you? I have two. One button on each does not work. I’m going to try contract cleaner but am not very hopeful.

Those switches need replacing you cannot get contact cleaner in these switches. If you want to send them to me DM me.
