Technics SL-QL1 Stop Button Compatibility?

[Webini]

I came across a pretty clean Technics SL-QL1 LT turntable. Cleaned it up, new belt, appropriate DeOxit and lubrication, new cart and it is good to go. It’s probably going to replace my pristine Marantz 6170.

The only issue is that the stop button is missing. Or I should say the top of the button. The base of the button works fine, but it looks odd and the completist in me wants it to be whole. Picture attached. The missing stop button is on the right. The identical start button is on the left.

Short of finding a donor for $$$ does anyone if any other Technics model uses this same button?

Looks similar to SL-5, but without dimensions, hard to tell.

if you look up the part number from the service manual for the button on https://partstore.encompass.com/ a lot of time it will cross reference for you and show you what other units use the same part.

Thanks. I found the part # (it is the entire assembly unfortunately). The part is shared with the SL-DL1 (duh).

Pull off the START button. Then the two will match.

That button looks quite similar to the button in the SL-1

Mine's an SL-DL1, don't know what SL-1 is.
