Can anyone help with FX Luke Ep VI conversion?

[Edited to correct Bloody stupid Typo - thanks for pointing it out Lord Maul]
Hi all.
I picked up a battered FX Luke Ep VI (RotJ) saber that I want to convert to a Luxeon set up.

When I say battered I mean the LEDs don't work, the pommel cap is missing, the blade is cracked.

I'm looking at taking everything out and starting with just a hilt.
BUT where can I get something that'll screw onto the pomel thread?

(I'm hoping TCSS will have the bits I need - I'm a fan of one-stop shopping)

thanks

the luke ep. IV or V?
there aren't many IVs out there beat up yet since they were just released.

assuming you have the esb version, you'll want to talk to tim regarding some custom machining for a blade holder and possibly even a pommel.

While it's true that Tim doesn't have holders designed for the ROTJ Luke specifically, it's also the case that the Maul blade holder fits snugly and securely inside the ROTJ Luke neck. The trick is keeping it from getting pushed deeper into the hilt, since there's nothing in the hilt per se to retain it.

I think that the general consensus is that the blade retention screw is up to the task, provided you're not going to subject it to extreme dueling. (If in doubt, you could always install two retention screws.)

okay, then ignore my last post, i wasn't addressing the right saber.

get the maul kit sold here, that works fine in the luke. then follow my tutorial for disassembling it in the Tutorial Writers thread. Wire the conversion like you would any other one, and you'll be set.

no not really the luke is diff then the others

[Lord Maul]

how so? the only difference is that the shock sensor isn't on the white clip thing, so that part is cut out of the equation of soldered wires.

this is what the wiring should look like.

exactly the purple and blue is pos on the rest not brown

OK, so Maul kit from TCSS (great! )

How about the pommel? As I said in my initial post. the pommel is absent.
Any idea where I can get something that will adequately replace it?
