Hope someone has a spare WhiteWater Speaker Panel they'd like sell?
Doesn't have to be in great condition either...just need the plastic section, not the whole panel assembly.

It'd be even more helpful if it was actually in stock

Thanks anyway, Still looking...someone PM'd me an ebay link, good price but description says scratched like the one I'm trying to replace. My end game is to buy an ColorDMD, but not without upgrading the speaker panel first. Hope someone out there has one?

Month old bump, still looking...can find everything for a Wh20 restore except the speaker panel.

No panel yet, sympathy picture attached...I now hate anyone with the initials WC.

Unless you have the initials WC and a spare WH20 speaker panel, then I love you.

Try using PlastX cleaner on it. It might hide the scratches enough to not be noticeable.

Mine had some very large scratches on it (deeper than yours actually). What I did was started with 800 grit sandpaper and went up to 2000 grit (wet sanding) to even it all out. Then I bought a pack of Micro-Mesh squares for wood that started at 1500 and with 9 squares went up to 12000 grit. I used them all (wet sanding). After that, I used novus 2, then finally Brillianize from Kleenmaster.

It took work, more time, and lots of patience, but it turned out very well. I couldn't find an new speaker panel either, but it almost looks new again

Started a mild restore without finding one, figure I'd give this thread another try.
Got new boulders and ramps on the way and this speaker panel will be an even uglier eyesore.
I'll give the wet sanding method a go if nothing turns up soon, thanks for the tips jdpilot!

Maybe you'll get it done before I get around to putting the new decals on my EATPM cab.

Crap they are sold out. Email them anyway . They have come through for me in the past.

I know this is an old thread, but I'm in the same boat (no pun intended) and I'm looking for a new (or in mint condition) WH2O speaker panel plastic. If anybody knows of one, or has any helpful links, I would much appreciate it.

Since these seem to be so hard to get, and this is a fairly popular machine, has anyone thought of doing a reproduction run?

Don't sell the wet sanding/novus thing short. I know arcade guys have saved lots of bezels and control panel overlay plexis with that method. Even stuff that's been burned with cigarettes.
