Two weeks and I'm in! What is the mylar do's and dont's on this title? I want to remove it, level the inserts and then put decals on the worn ones, grand finale is automotive clearcoat. Has anyone accomplished this successfully?
Please share your horror and success stories!

Hey fans! I've got a few questions on this marvelous pin I just got.
What is the "right" coil to use in the bumper to get the action required? Is stock good enough?
There's talk about the latest ROMs in this video
#t=193
regarding getting a free lock on first spell of tomcat, what version is that and how do I verify? There's only one up on IPDB.
Sometimes when the machine powers up music is missing and I have to turn the machine off and on. I guess this is more of a System11 question than F-14 specific, but I thought I'd check.
More questions will most likely follow. Thanks!
Quoted from Snux:Welcome to the club
Thank you sir and your elaborate reply! I will experiment with the coil and let the machine boot properly before I start a game. 
As for the rules I will check more closely what I actually got ROM-wise.

A bunch of plastics just came up on ebay! http://ebay.to/1yEyaKK
Quoted from Kawydud:Complete new plastic sets for F-14. http://www.classicplayfields.com/store-plastics.html
OMG! When did this get announced?!
Quoted from Hess:Yeah... I thought the same thing but a fair amount of money to tie up in at home inventory / just in case.
Insurance if I ever get a playfield worthy a new set.

F14 fans, what kind of coilstops are you using in your games? I bought a kit from Marco (WFLKIT8787) and I've realized the angle of the flipper is way too steep. Comparing the Marco one vs the ones I took out, they're about 2.5mm longer than the kit ones.
Looking at the pictures of A-10821 (what the fine manual says) and A-12111 on Marcos website, then ones I took out looked more like A-12111.
Ideas?
