For those with 3D printing capabilities, there is a great mountain model on thingiverse;

Here is what it looks like unpainted, printed in white.

Quoted from Paseb:Thx, how to? Any link? Or purchase a new unit?
Where is this power supply located? Noob here
Thx
It is easy to damage the PCB traces when desoldering the old components. I highly recommend that you find a friend with good soldering skills or send the board out for the work.
Good read through on pinwiki for all things power related troubleshooting for WPC power board. https://pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Williams_WPC#Game_resets
(section 6.17.15 talks about replacing the filter capacitors with the same warning as I mentioned above.)

For High Speed, I created a 3d printed LED stoplight replacement.. This is needed when one upgrades to the Freeplay40 replacement ramp, but also it looks way better than the stock black brick even if isn't broken (which they usually are). Someone suggested at some point I should consider fitting it to HS2 as the the stock one is also quite large and brick like. I finally got around to fitting one just to see what it would look like. It does look comically small in comparison to the original. After a little getting used to it, the size seems to fit the scale of the rest of the game much better. Also it noticeable how much it opens visibility to the right orbit and tunnel shots.
For this to work on HS2, I would need to adapt the harness, but would keep everything else the same. Before I do that, I would like to get an idea of interest to know if it is worth the effort. Feel free to PM me directly, or add your thoughts here or to the dedicated mod thread;

Indeed thanks. Your version has been the gold standard improvement for quite a while. Honestly I am not sure which size I prefer. Since I was in the middle of building HS orders, I figured it was a good time to see how it looked on HS2 before I pack the game up for a while.

For those interested, I have adapted my High Speed LED stoplight to be plug and play for HS2. Basically I added an adapter board which allows me to reuse the HS stoplight without modification. I designed the adapter board to hide behind the housing so that it isn't visible to the player. It's plug and play and mounts directly to the same post as the original. Since my HS2 is currently packed up, I sent my first proto to Scott8806 for fit and some play testing. I'll let him add his general comments on the mod, but so far with no issues found I have put it up in my shop;
