I would say this should work, since the electronics seem to be largely independent of the saber, with a few potential issues coming to mind:

-If the LED modules have in fact gotten smaller, as I've seen in the ASP modules, there may be some spacing issues between the LED and switch. I've had this issue with my ASP hilt but I don't know if it applies to the main line hilts as well.

-Depending on the size difference in hilts, you may run into an issue with wires that are either too short or too long. If you know how to solder you can shorten or extend the wires as needed.
