Quoted from whitey:

Anyone ever seen an alternative translite?

No. I've seen them for stern playboy but not for DE. Would be interested.

Quoted from Pin-up:

The mounts for the display are missing and I don't see any part numbers or reference to them in the manual. Any information on what should be there? Bolts? Plastic stand offs?

These are plastic stand offs.

As far as the lockdown bar, I compared to my Pinbot and my Xenon, and I can only confirm that Bally and Williams bars will NOT work. The Data East have the lugs spread wider.

I think I have a manual that shows the fuse sizes somewhere. I'll let you know if I find it.

Hey guys!
Chris at pinballreplacement parts is willing to take on the project of creating a new board for the lamps that go behind the "pinball" plastic between the speakers in the back box on Playboy 35th and I need some good photos and more information for him to get started on this.
I just heard back from Chris today and he's willing to give this project a go.
If anyone here is willing to take photos of the board showing how it is mounted, and a good photo of each side of the board that would be AWESOME! Let's get this project rolling for all
It would also be super helpful to have dimensions between any mounting holes/brackets and the exact spacing between the lights and location of them on the board itself.
I don't think this board would have diodes on it, but that is another question that will need to be answered as well.
If you can help out with information please PM me and we can get this thing rolling!
Thanks!

The circuit board is mounted on an MDF spacer with holes drilled for the bulbs. Hope these pictures help.

Here's Pinstein's translite installed on my machine. Looks great!

Quoted from Ceckitti:Got it! Overall it’s in great shape! As far as mechanically I think all it needs is the right flipper rebuilt.
Will be setting it up tonight and messing with it this weekend.

Looks nice. If I remember correctly, these have different flipper mechs than other pinball machines. No eos switches I think.

Quoted from Ceckitti:

Anyone know if maybe in the design period of the playfield that they were planning on adding something under the big mansion plastic and to the right of the top lanes? I noticed on my game that there is a plain circle there that has no purpose. Like maybe there was going to be a switch or a pop up post?
I mean its the perfect spot for a skill shot, maybe that was thought about?
Just curious...
[quoted image][quoted image]

I've often thought the same thing about that spot - like somethings missing because they had to cut the budget last minute. Seems like there should have been a saucer there.
