I believe somewhere in the FIRST documentation it says to hack a PWM cable for these. I guess it would be possible to take some small gauge wire and run that from the switches to the inputs, but you would have to make sure that the wires coming to the pins dont short in that small space, and im not sure of the legality. I would just recommend sticking with the PWM cables.
