    going to pick up a Gottlieb with the centered translite lock. i don't think the owners have the key. advice for drilling it out? i'm worried the drilling will mess up the translite, or something else on the inside. anyone have a pic of the lock on the inside? also, I'm assuming i can't fold the head down unless I get inside and remove some bolts?
    thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the help. Security Hex Bit: I will need to pick up a set or borrow one. Any idea what size I'll need?

    I found a youtube video, and it looks like 1/8" ...

    I'm closing this thread. I picked up 32 piece set at Tractor Supply for $5. It had the right bit, but then I couldn't get the cam to twist and release the translite. I drilled out the lock anyway. Then found keys hanging on the inside of the coin door. The old adage of working on pins: look for the easy solution first.
