I am getting ready to work on the lights on my HG and I want to order some light sockets to have on-hand as I'm sure some are bad considering how bad Bally's sockets were in this era. I checked the manual but didn't see any part description or numbers for the sockets.

Are these the correct ones for the feature lights: https://www.pinballlife.com/search.html?Search=E-120-127%20

Are these the GI lamp sockets: https://www.pinballlife.com/search.html?Search=E-120-19

Does anyone know which ones for backbox?

Going to try and place an order for some parts for HG today. Anyone able to confirm if the parts above or correct or not?

I am getting ready to do a shop job and am also looking for the part number for the red posts. For the plastic hold downs, did this game have the nylon hex nuts or push down rubber caps? My game currently has both.

Is there a parts list or something I am missing? The manual doesn't have listings for a lot of the parts I need to get.

I could have sworn mine were smooth but maybe I looked at them wrong or someone swapped them out at some point. I think you are right with the ones above because I found this picture on ipdb and the post is faceted! https://www.ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=1125&picno=66013

I'm at work and even if I was home I don't have the game torn down to tell how many tall or shorts I need. Do you know or where I could look? Once again, the manual seems to really suck for parts reference and quantity.

I have wanted one of these games for a while and when a decent one popped up locally I grabbed it!

I counted around 30 posts also last night; was going to order 32 to be sure, but didn't think to measure them.

If you think you will be home soon and can check cool, if not I can check when I get home tonight. I just looked at the factory flyer; the plastic hold nuts appear to have been the hex nylon nuts.

Yep, finned for sure; mine must have been swapped out somewhere along the line. My game has a mix of push nuts and nylon but I think I like the nylon better and that's what was in the original flyer so that's what I'm going to go with. Thanks for looking up the pics and posting them!

That's a great idea to make a diagram showing which posts are what height! I'll be using that idea when I shop the game.

I took some measurements last nights on random posts and about 3 out of every 4 were 1 3/16" tall with 1 of 4 being 1"

I could have mis-measured since the plastics were on but I'm pretty sure I didn't. The ones I noticed were around the drop target area but I will document when I take it apart.

I saw that post last night and was thinking "why is that there?" lol I do remember reading that years ago as his trademark but had forgotten.

I'm not sure the posts are in the proper place on mine but the plain red post was in the right place so maybe the others are right, heck it may have never been taken apart for a thorough shop job and that wouldn't surprise me from some of the stuff I have seen on this game but you never really know what kind of a life a game has had, especially one this old.
