    Hi guys!
    Got a new plastic set for my centaur and it came with 2 additional plastics that are confusing me... see pic.

    Also, is there an easy way to pop of these posts on the plastics by the flippers and easy way to reinstall? Just brute force?

    Thx!

    I used my de solderer to heat up the inside of the metal bell to soften the plastic and pulled it out with some needle nose pliers. To install on the new plastic I just laid the plastic on top of the metal bell, heated up the bell and pushed down as the plastic softens. Worked great and super easy

    Yes. CPR had those in the repro set, but they are not used in the game. I heard somewhere they were related to a prototype idea that didn’t make it into production

    The extra pieces are for inlane guides. It would replace the gate from the outlanes.
