What song is that at the beginning?

[BAWnd4spd]

@nlafavore That song was mixed by a local dj in the Dallas area that did a radio show, unfortunately the show was cancelled due to the fall of the economy. It was dj meritt & bd slide on Edge club 102. If you want to hear the song in it's entirety, personal message me your e-mail and I will send it to you. If you like it let me know, I have others by those two you might like and I would mail them to you as well.

Great job BTW. Can you tell me how wide this machine is?

[BAWnd4spd]

@VinceLatello Thanks- wide body machines are 29" wide

[BAWnd4spd]

@VinceLatello I was wrong on the width of the wide bodies. The actual playfield width is 25" wide, I measured it.

no changing of sockets required

[BAWnd4spd]

@murdew78 - just slip the new bulbs in

[VinceLatello]

@BAWnd4spd Thanks!

@jslime - Just pull the original bulb and install the new L.E.D. bulbs. This makes a big diffrence in game apperance. But the bulbs are touchy and half to be inserted directionally and you also half to make sure the metal contacts on the new bulbs get pulled out a little to make sure they have good contact inside the socket. The L.E.D. spot light bulbs are really cool because they cuase a strobing effect as the ball moves past it leaving impressive tracers. Thanks for the comment. Game on

This is pretty cool thanks for sharing. I have a question, when you buy the LED light kits, do you just have to replace the lamps with the LEDs, or do you actually have to take out the old sockets and solder in new ones for each LED?

Thanks!
