I would only suggest doing this mod if you are extremely comfortable with a soldering iron. I'm not responsible if you mess up your Joy-Con. With that being said below are the things I used to make this possible:

Yeah, I used a formlabs printer to resin print the tops and bottoms separately. I sanded with 400-3000 grit sandpaper in addition to using autobody spray paint filler, to help get a smooth finish.
In terms of room inside...there isn't much. BUT, if you use the proper wires (https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00GWFECWO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) it's tight, but not a huge issue. Just take into account that you want NO slack wire hanging around in there.

Cheap, multicolor.
Real kynar insulated wirewrap wire is much nicer and the insulation does not melt like this vinyl stuff does, but it's expensive.
