Step 4Drill on/off control
Remove the handle from the umbrella. This may sound easy, but those clever manufactures don't intend for their product to be disassembled. You may need to use your hulk strength.
Once removed, drill an opening for your control button. Make sure to investigate the location from the inside too, there may be an obvious location to install your button or you may have to be creative.
I was lucky and found a cavity inside the handle which was a suitable location. Drill and remove any burrs.
Running the tip of a glue gun inside the opening gave as smooth look and removed any jagged edges, use sparingly or the opening may become too large!
Once opening is drilled and de-burred glue the clicker into place.
