Has anybody replaced the slingshot/lane guide plastics? If so, what with? I'm not a fan of the dinos there, especially since they block the view of the inlanes. Just removing their heads is no option since their arms remain on the lane guide plastics. If a mod maker were to create an alternative, I'd definitely be interested.

Help please - I managed to lose the small black allen screw that holds the metal part interrupting the opto beams to the truck shaft. Does anybody know the exact dimensions? I can't find it in the manual. Thanks!

Thanks, I found it. I had to tear down everything on the underside between the truck and the backboard before it finally decided to drop down into the cabinet. Found a couple of washers lost during assembly, too.

To anybody struggling with the outlanes - I've had great results with replacing the metal posts between inlanes and outlanes (not the actual outlane posts) with thin plastic ones. This changes the angles enough to direct more balls towards the inlanes without making it too easy (nudging still highly recommended...). I haven't done any statistics, but I would estimate that - without nudging - now a ball going in the general direction of an outlane has a probability of 40-50% of draining whereas it was more like 60-70% before, which was way too high for my taste.
