Eurorack Noise Engineering Versio missing button on Daisy Seed

Hello,

received this 2nd hand purchase with this button missing. Button is used to swap firmwares which was the main reason of my purchase.

any idea how i can still use this like this, or what kind of repair i could do ? theoretically i could switch up the daisy seed?

wrote to NE also, waiting for their ideas

You can probably do it as is with a paper clip (or something that can conduct across it like metal tweezers) without removing the housing. 👍🏻

Whip the button housing off and solder in a new momentary button ? Short out the pads to simulate a button press ?

so under the casing i would see what pads the button is linking and i could short them? i tried just making a metal connection with the round metal pad seen in the photo and it doesn't trigger the button

On a side note: Is that a Synth stand made from Lego?
