Unlike isulating tape it stays flexible and doesn't have sticky edges - think of it as a bit like a bike inner tube in feel.

Has worked for me for a couple of years now but I applied it before the buttons actually fell out...

Another tip talking about locks etc and Jaycar is to spray some Lithium Grease into the ignition lock as that helps lubricate it before it breaks up totally - again mines been fine for a couple of years since doing that.

Both the above are common Disco 2 issues...

Don't use a sticky spray like Lithium. Get a dry glide, teflon type spray, otherwise dust will collect in the grease. Also, Whitworths sell self amalgamating tape a lot cheaper than Jaycar.

Clips are typically to hold the housing together. Soldering of the switch is reqd.
