Cap for the USB port on 360?

askyn · 03-29-2010, 03:31 AM

Hi all /wave

Im tring to track down a rubber cap that would fit the usb port on the 360.

Preferabley one that has a little handle / tab sticking off so that I could attach it to a lanyard and then attack that to the 360 case via the wrist strap holes.

Does anyone know were i could find one ?

Or refer me to a place that I could search?

New or used?

Thank you

The only thing i could imagine to your seeking is here (conrad.de,german webshop and catalog)

I can imagine, that you are searching like something you (perhaps) know from a camera, to "safe" the USB-Port.

Anyway why do you want to put sth in the USBPort? I think its unecessary.

First off thank you for your response =)

That isnt quite what im looking for, just looking for a small protective cover like what you would find on your cell phone for plugs etc.

As for why I would want it?

it would protect against dust / grime build up on the contact area, also will help prevent corrosion from forming etc.

over all ... just a proactive preventative messure that will help extend the life of the machine =)

Thanks for bringing it up, Askyn.
Thanks for the Link Norciom.

Never would've thought of it before, but I can easily use a dozen for several of my gadgets.

Got them in today and they work great !

I ordered 2 different types, and extra of each.

One if flush and fits nice and snug, the other has a "handle" and protrudes out.

im to have my wife experiment with making a lanyard for one of each so that it can be attached to the 360 via the wrist wrap holes.

That way i wont loose it when I want to change / transfer books etc.

any way .. thank you TONS again =)
