    Does anyone have the plastic covers that go over the Optos on Gottlieb System 3 Machines?
    One of them on my rescue 911 is cracked pretty badly...

    I can't find them anywhere...

    Lathroum just curious, did you ever manage to source some?

    I called Steve at PBR, no luck there.

    I am probably gonna mock one up using some project boxes that are roughly the same dimensions.

    I'm gonna try and 3d print one... but they are so thin...

    Vacuuforming would probably work better. Although, you could probably 3D print the buck.

    I've got a model for them on thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4847452. They printed pretty easily and are more than strong enough for the job they do. Gottlieb seemed to use multiple mounting hole positions so you will have to add a screw hole or drill it after printing.
