I was building my second Vitalii TAP and realized I didn't have any more of the correct opto sensors for it.  But I did have a few left over from my purchase of 5 cheap ones a few years ago.  So I modified his Wired Optical Sensor Mount.stl to accommodate this version of the sensor.

You do need to remove the JST connector that comes soldered to the board, and then solder in the wires you need to attach it to the printhead wiring.  The photos show the steps necessary.

Update:  Replaced original files with one with the sensor down a mm or so, because original was right on the edge of triggered on one build.  This V2 version is more robust.
