As I learn and study all things pinball one thing I am noticing is what appears to be some cost cutting in production. Like why drill a dedicated light hole when there is a giant one for a kicker or stand up target right there. The downside being the lighting being off center for plastic illumination and/or glare in the eyes.
A simple enough solution would be to drill for a better location or less invasive would be a topside fixture mount. I have an EM with some really poor bulb locations with the worst being a pair behind targets that end up wasting most illumination on my eyes and not the large colored plastic above it.
I posted with the intent of boring new holes in my ancient playfield but while posting I realized some robust double sided tape and proper fixture might solve my problem.
Either way what are some Pinside opinions and solutions regarding this matter..?
