Quoted from Kobaja:

did you do this exactly as in the first post? I have a getaway and also still thinking about this...

Yes had to look at wire harness real close though.

I seen what you were talking about. I guess I got lucky and mounted it far enough towards the front of the cab to miss it . Looks like if not far enough to front it will hit the white plastic on coil where wire is to coil. In pic you can see flipper button is push more to the edge of board than in the middle.

Don't know if it makes a difference but my coil is flipped around the wire side is toward plunger.

Quoted from Kobaja:

Is there a wiring diagram for the harness anywhere? I've found the boards to order, but not sure how many parts of what I need for the harness...
What size of molex connectors is needed?

Here's a pic of the molex and pins I used

Quoted from ajnin:

I have installed the optos in my HS2, but having issues with the opto hitting the ball shooter coil. No fix yet. once finished I will post pictures also

Took a close look at mine with apron off. It is a tight fit and the spring steel part was hitting coil and part of the black plastic between the optos was hitting the big round part of the plunger. To fix it I lowered it so button is as close to top as I could get this puts the black plastic for optos just below the round part of plunger. The spring steel part had to trim a little with tin snips to clear coil. Anyone going to do this should take apron off to mount on shifter side
