Nintendo Ds cart / Wii SD slot style?

I am using an SD card for one of my projects and I was wondering how I could achieve the effect that the wii sd slot / DS cart slot has; how the port has the spring action mechanism when you put the card in. I have been searching sites to see if they sell that type of port, that I would just then just wire it in to my system, but I haven't found any results. My current slot / device just slides in a little bit , and I fear if I do not align the port exactly right in the case, it won't work right.

Any advice? DIY or a cheap product that works like that? I don't really want to break open my wii just for the sd card system...


THANKS!
 
There are tons of devices with SD slots that are spring loaded. I would check ebay or start a thread in the Junkyard, I'm sure someone has one.
 
Here is a cheaper one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Perfect-SD-...ltDomain_0&hash=item4cfcc47f2f#ht_2764wt_1270

Found another listing that appeared to say that it was spring loaded (reading engrish is an art, not an exact science), looked like exactly the same product. Only problem is the Lunar New Year, so stuff from Hong Kong won't ship for a while. I would just post a thread in Junkyard, someone would probably send you one in an envelope for $2 (I would if I had one).
 
Thanks for all of the listings! I am probably going to go with one of the digi-key ports as I need to order some tact switches from there also.
