Doesn't that seem like a big oversight? You can clearly see Jango's RF move down when he lassos OWK on kamino (hell the damn thing even moved 90 degrees backwards, but I won't get into THAT discussion). The buckets should be designed to allow for the movement of the RF.
Regardless, I still want to put the effort into making it work. It adds an extra dimension of bad-assery to the whole ensemble.
It looks like with the push connectors on JC's rig, I can slide those onto any switch I want and crimp them down and be good to go (in theory).
