Looks like Tomy's has got future plans for dem buttons, circuit boards are already there and wired. I guess the real buttons and upgraded cars are all that's needed. Orrrrr, maybe the cars are already upgraded and just need da buttons ?????? That's something to look into, which I'll do tonight!!!
What's the range on these babies? Better than the originals?
Also, you said there was a channel selector on the back for A,B,C? What channels did your cars come in?

Mr. DarkTari Sir.
No disrespect but, the black portion of the rubber button will make an electrical contact. I've seen it in cameras for many years.

As I said earlier, the detail on this thing is unbelievable! The only things that were'nt detailed were the front driving, parking, & signal lights and I've done those already! The Jota is my absolute favorite right now but with those new Lambo & Ferrari sets, that could change very easily. I'm lookin forward to gettin dat Lotus though!

My Badd Hog, $24.39ea, same price as the old Tomy's
The Gloria's went back up to $24.39.
Here's a bad pic of a real Jota, trying to get wheels as close as possible to the originals...WT49 !!! I'll have to try and make the knockoffs myself
