    Default screw in vs push in arcade buttons

    I'm going to be doing a gamepad-based controller build soon, and was wondering if the push-in type arcade buttons are suitable for mounting onto acrylic (3-5mm)? No-one had them pop loose or anything during an extending mashing session?

    the spec for those say between 2 and 5mm so should be fine. i bought some of the type with screw fasteners as i'm not sure yet what to use to house them - esp as i might go the cheapo lunchbox route first off just to experiment
