Quoted from Quench:Ouch!
Would think most are green. Here's a side by side of the two from earlier in this thread:

Thankyou Quench,
I prefer the green so i will probably stick with that color
i thought it may have changed color over time like the playfield

I had a mate do my playfield swap for me
everything was rebuilt with new parts and some i had to make
and swinks chimed in with some parts https://www.shapeways.com/marketplace?type=product&q=swinksc-972-3parts
the pic does not give it justice on how good it looks
thanks Edy Stevens

Quoted from cooked71:How many fathoms have the black trim around the front of the backbox? I assumed mine was just an operator hack, but surprised to see Pinoffski ’s has exactly the same? Was it possibly another “factory” variation like the yellow. And on mine the backbox stand is also matching black. [quoted image][quoted image]
Just must of been the thing to do back in the day .
Definitely original colour under the black.
The hardest decision to do is to sand of the original artwork..

Quoted from BigAl56:Those exact sockets are no longer made as they were an inferior design. Similar wedge lamp sockets are commonly available at all the usual places.
could you share were they are ?
as far as i know you have to change out to bayonet type sockets
you can buy a board type as a replacement for fathom the same as kiss
