Just joined the club. My speaker panel is black(?) and busted. Is this available anywhere? I'm also looking for the bumper caps part numbers.

Are there any alternative ROMs available for this game, especially competitive settings? The whole random roll which ramp award you get assigned and the non-feature of not being able to turn off extra balls are quite annoying.

If anyone is interested at all, I'm going to document some steps while I rebuild my Laser War. VODs from my Twitch stream will be made available on this YouTube playlist as they become available:

I was thinking about raising the eject mech with some washers, effectively making the hole deeper, has anyone tried that or heard of that solution?

Looking stupid while replying to your own post, but I've completed the series now and the game is up and running: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-eIxuLeDsB00wASHVQ35UD79t39DwodB

I just ordered DIY gasket material (1/8"). I'll report back to the thread how it went.

I got these sheets (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFRJD56) and cut a gasket similar to the carton material that's already there and used 3/4" wood screws to sandwich it all together. I saw some minor improvements. The right flipper to yellow still rejects about two out of three shots, left flipper it's near 100%. The blue works really good now and a perfect shot grabs the ball with a kinetic satisfaction. The red I really never had a problem with but just because I never had, it rejected one shot yesterday.

My theory is that the brackets hanging over the saucers needs to be bent forward as decades of ball hits may have change the angle a tiny bit or they weren't at the optimal angle to begin with.

Anyhow, I had a long game yesterday with a ball 1 that never ended.
