Got my GNR about 8 mos. ago and slowly fixing all the little issues. It's mostly good now, but the switch that's in the Snake Pit 'Funnel' keeps getting knocked out of the cutout/hole that it's mounted in so that it doesn't register. Was just going to work on securing the switch better that's in there, but Jrotten mentioned that people have used a MRS in place of this. These are new to me. Has anyone out there put one into the GNR snake pit, and how easy is it to mount/install, how well does it work, where is the best place to get them, etc?

Thanks all,
Neil

Example of the bowl switch in post #4.

Send a PM to Sonic (Matt) - he'll take care of you. I've replaced all of the rollovers in my DE GNR with these (ramps/bowl switches to follow) - the install is super-easy and you'll love the way they work.
