    Anyone know where I might buy a set of these? I’m about ‘Googled out’, and so far not finding anywhere that sells them.

    Thanks

    paint your own. I scanned and printed out the image. As reference I put it under the grill that I painted solid white then masked off the blue then red. Masking was done by taping then using an exacto knife to trim using a straight edge. I was able to correct sloppy crooked lines of originals too. When a touch up was needed i just sprayed some in the lid and used a throw away brush or a tooth pick. I'll post the scan and the final results. i used rustoleum 2x can't remember the names of the colors though. I just thought about this,Do you have the grills at all? I did not and had to use from another game. i also had access to another Tommy to get the scan. Hope this helps.

    Thanks Wolfus, looks good. Due to time constraints right now I was hoping to find a replacement set online, but may try what you did when things free up here if no one knows a supplier.
    Thanks again for sharing that.

    You might look at the Tommy club thread. There is a recent post on parting out a Tommy for parts.

    HIPPY Thanks, he did not have them
    modfather Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind for the future.

    I am going to pull out a Cricut from storage I forgot about, and see how that goes. Seems like a good application for it to make a stencils.

    That is me parting out the Tommy but I do not have the Union Jack speaker inserts
    But still have a lot of parts including the Translite mylar, transformer, light boards, ramps, bumbers, some plastics, subway and some kickers
