Sorry for the double topic post but couldn't figure out how to edit my
other post "Topic title". So.......

I'm picking up a D.E. Hook and wondering what some have done for mods
and peoples opinions on what are the best mods for this pin.

Pics would be great!

Thanks, Mark

For my Hook:
Replaced the factory white flipper buttons with translucent then used the Cointaker red backlight kit that I hooked into the start button so they would flash in time with it.
Swapped over to full LED,
Installed Cliffy's on both subway holes and,
Put red Pincab Protectors on it (painted cab, no decal so they work good).

In plan is to upgrade the speaker system.

Other than that not much out there for Hook. I'll post a few pics later.

I'm interested in seeing it, especially the LED's.

Good idea, didn't think of that.
I have a spider web ball for my Amazing Spiderman & it looks awesome.

I was thinking about mirror blades but I think the left side would be a waste.
It would be 3/4 blocked by things on the PF.

Thoughts????

I wouldn't waste blades on it. Too much hidden by the playfield. Here are a few pics of mine..

Cliffy's on the Skull Hole along with Blue Cliffy's instead of black on the posts.
