Quoted from Cmjb13:

I was replacing the star posts and a couple of the "claw holders" broke that allow the screws to go into them.
Is there a specific term for these?[quoted image][quoted image]

Those are called t-nuts. It is common for these to break during removal on System 11 games like Diner because they were threadlocked (like a blue glue) into place during manufacture to prevent them coming loose during play. I hate that this was done and always have a few break on me. Gottlieb Sys 3 games have this issue too.

Relatively easy to replace if you have them on hand.

The common sizes are 6-32, 8-32, 10-32

Quoted from Cmjb13:

Anyone know what the best way is to access the target decals so I can replace them?
[quoted image]

You can either:

1. Raise the drop target into the Up position and jam a piece of folded cardboard under the reset plate to hold it up while you install new decals from the top side

2. Disconnect the connectors (2 I think, one to power the reset coil and one for the switches) and unscrew the bracket and pull the whole assembly out.
