Hi all, I just got a DE Time Machine. I really like this machine, but I have a couple of questions that I can’t find in the manual. The lock for the back glass, what size lock and cam should be there? This one looks to have a standard lock but the cam seems to short and it doesn’t lock the glass in. I’m not sure if just a longer cam would work or if it’s something special.The other thing is I want to convert this over to LEDs, it seems the head uses #44s except for the “Time warp” lights that are #555. Under the playfield seem to be #555 but it looks like the lights for the large inserts like the 60s-80’s seem to be bigger than the normal #555. I looked at that late at night and might be wrong.

OK I figured the bulbs out, I thought they were 906 bulbs but wasn't sure why they were there. I found they use regular 555 and a flasher for some of the inserts. Well now on to the lock in the head, its amazing how better you see when you get some sleep.

I was wondering if someone can tell me what type of lock and cam should be in the back box of this? There's a standard one there now and the cams to short, I put a longer cam in and its hitting the back glass. I'm not sure just to bend it up some or if there was something special there to begin with.

If needed, I have an Apron available.
For the backglass.....you can ask Coos in Holland for a remake. I can offer him a backglass in order to scan it.

I just sent them a message, I didn't see the backglass listed but I am interested if they are doing this.

Thanks.
