Tales from the Crypt
Data East, 1993I'm doing my first playfield swap and it's a Data East with the dreaded stapled GI sockets. I'm contemplating replacing the GI lamp sockets with the B/W type that screw in to the playfield and running insulated wire. I figure it will probably be easier than trying to re-use the old ones and will make future maintenance and lamp changes easier. Anyone else ever do this? Good idea? Sacrilege? Advice? What do you think?
