This restrictor plate is ONLY compatible with the older, Panasonic microswitch PCB assembly.
More recent models of LS-56 have a BLACK restrictor plate, and are NOT compatible with this product.
If you never swapped out the PCB assembly in your LS model, then the model with white square restrictor plate should have the Panasonic microswitch.
If you have swapped the PCB assembly recently, Omron switches require a different plate.
We are planning to stock the BLACK OMRON restrictor plate in the near future.
If you're looking to go full Seimitsu but need the smooth circular motion of Sanwa's GTY restrictor plate, you're in luck. The LS-56 Octagonal Restrictor Plate is compatible with the following Seimitsu joystick models:
I am surprised these are not more popular. If you are looking for more precision on an LS-32 this is a must have. Just take off the square main guide, screw this one in and you will be good to go.Fernando Romero
