Just installed my BSD coffin mod tonight after it sat in my basement for 6 months. Did not go smoothly at all. Had to remove a ton of material from the underside of the mod, and it still doesn't completely sit flush. Ended up breaking the corners on the back end of the mod, but eventually got it seated after a hour of dremeling. Not exactly the mod I was hoping for. I must have gotten a dud. Still looks good, but damn it was a lot of work.
Quoted from pinball_customs:That's odd, sorry to hear that. I have a BSD here I test every mod on before shipping -- did you remove the light board?
PM me your email address and I'll send some money back for your trouble.
Yup, removed the light board and the small bracket. A friend recently installed one on his BSD as well, so I knew that it should have fit better. It was off by approximately a 1/4 of an inch.
Quoted from 30FathomDave:I installed this tonight. Looks badass! An enormous improvement over Ron Jeremy.
For people who will be adding this mod, but maybe have only skimmed the thread, be sure to remove the light board and bracket underneath it. If you don't, the mod will not sit flush. I wasted an embarrassing amount of time before figuring this out (then I read more of the thread and saw others had done the same). Think Clark Giswold messing with his Christmas lights, and that was pretty much me in my game room tonight.
After installing it, somehow the language reset to French when I started it back up. I know this mod had nothing to do with that, but WTFrench? It took me 20 minutes to figure out where to find the language setup. I didn't replace the batteries that long ago, and it held English after turning it off and on a few times. Not sure what happened, but it was annoying as shit. A beer afterwards helped me restore serenity.
Has anyone installed a light strip under the coffin to give it more glow? If so, I'd love to see pics. I'm also considering putting flex LEDs in the coffin lock lights, and angling them down at the coffin. That might look cool...
I put 7 led red strip under my coffin and replaced the flashers as well. It was a pain in the ass to reroute the wiring, as it was not long enough. I mounted the original coffin board under the playfield, as one other user suggested. It looks good. I will try to get a picture tomorrow.
