Shaker motor is my favorite mod i added. Pinblades and speaker grill lights i added also but there just cosmetic and not needed. Honestly havent seen any addon playfield mods that i like or feel look worth buying.

Did you use the Stern OEM shaker motor or one of the other kits out there? The Stern model may be overpriced, but I'm concerned about warranty headaches.
Will add led color changing speaker grills and flipper button lights, green flipper superbands and pinblades for my LE...and a color dmd once it's available.
Still really like the feel and look of superbands. Now in saying that, I have had very limited playtime with titans. I think the green supers will look awesome on GBLE.
Quoted from Wamprat:I will put a shaker and some mirror blades in my Prem, that's it.
Don't Prem come with shaker?
Quoted from TheLaw:None.
I keep the thing clean and playing well. The game is already wacky enough....doesn't need more shit glued to it IMO.
Totally agree, I have more worthless shit mods sitting in boxes that I absolutely had to have on the hype train. 
I can count on one hand the truly great mods that i have and can say were worth it.
For me, not a F ing thing on GBLE, especially what I've seen so far.
Quoted from Wamprat:Not to my knowledge, would be great if they did.
Hmm.. Anyways great mod for cheap, my MET Pro came pre drilled for a shaker and took about 5 minutes to install

Man the whole modding thing has gotten out of control, it was actually cheaper to get a NIB Met than a used one. I've yet to see a pin for sale that I actually liked all the mods. I prefer to lightly mod my own machine to my tastes.

Now that is one that I think improves all games
My must haves for all my new Sterns.
Shaker motor
Pinnovators headphone jack and sub output combo
Speaker panel light kit with a cool insert.
Maybe a color DMD for the right title. This one will take quite awhile to get colorized though.
And for this one I got the colored balls to replace the captive balls.
That's about it.
Maybe the little mirror that shows the PKE inserts better as that is useful.

Quoted from Flato:What do most people use for flipper bands these day super or titan
I prefer pinballife perfect play flipper rubbers, then titan.
Used to have super bands on all my pins buy i switched to perfect plays and will never go back.

Thanks for the tip.
I hadn't heard about these until now, I've only used Super bands as well.
Are they just a better bounce? I know SB can put some cray spin on the balls...
How do they look on your pins? I'm a fan of the color of the SB as well.
Cheers

Bounce is way better, colors are good but not as dark. The perfect play purple is kind of shitty like a fuchsia.

Couldn't agree more. But I am getting a Premium, toys included

Well it was a must "try" and it worked but most people don't like it even when it's set to the lowest light level (these are at the highest levels). Looks like I'll have the only game with lit T molding in existence. I think it fits the theme perfectly but the majority don't think so. Oh well I tried.

Thanks for the support. Free shipping on the US right now! Just incase your missing a machine...
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:I think this Proton Pack from Ebay...around $15 looks great on the game!
Link?
I found the ULEK flipper toppers a nice addition as well as the sling and inlane plastics. I also picked up the Hot Wheels Ecto-1 and Ecto-1A dual pack. The Yeti side blades are nice too.
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:I think this Proton Pack from Ebay...around $15 looks great on the game!
I think thats the proton pack from the 2016 reboot film
ebay.com link: Ghostbusters Proton Pack and Wand by Running Press
comes with tons of stickers...I added to lock down bar, storage unit, etc.....
How were you able to use both the center post plastic piece AND the green colored protector? The kit shows it that way there was no way I could get both on. The green under the original plastic, then original, then the full center piece raised it all too high for me to thread the nuts on. Did you have to modify something to get it all to go on?
I had barely enough thread to grab both.
I didnt add or modify anything.
If you are having difficulty, im not sure what to suggest, other than another hex standoff, the shortest,
and that might work.
I picked up an ECTO-1 license plate magnet ebay.com link: itm
and a "no ghosts" logo magnet ebay.com link: itm
for the coin door.

i was having trouble. you have to push the green plastic while bending it a little. it doesnt go in easily. its very tight. mine had just enough thread. it took me 15 minutes messing with it but it worked out. btw i couldnt use the washers not enough thread left.
I had to have a Terror Dog mod. I just can't understand why they didn't place something there since there is a Terror Dog target and insert. So I 3D printed my own and I think it came out pretty good. Robotron, yours is going in the mail this week. I order shipping boxes from Amazon which i'll have tuesday so I can get these out.
I decided to do a small run of these if anyone is interested. The model I used is open source so anyone can print their own, or I can print and paint. I figured about $15 shipped is a fair price. If anyone is interested I should have a batch ready early this week. I will put up a post when i'm ready.
Btw, the new ones I am printing after about 8mm smaller so they will fit under the ramp a little better. I didn't make these with any specific mounting. You can see on mine I unscrewed the nut on the plastic a bit, zip tied it, and tightened it back down. Works for me.
