    How do I loosen these bolts (without removing them completely). I can't unscrew the screw from the outside of the cabinet.

    There's a bit of the decal that hasn't been properly cut around on the side which is triggering me..

    I don't have to lift the whole playfield out to do this surely?

    Thanks in advance!

    These? Are they not standard? I bought mine like this.

    Quoted from pintechev:

    Yes, I would remove the PF to do that safely. As for how to move them and straight piece of metal - an old bracket, etc will give you the leverage and torque you’ll need.

    Thanks for the fast reply. I managed to get my fingernail around the edge and take off most of it to the point where you wouldn't see it unless you looked really close. Don't fancy removing the playfield at this stage

    Thanks all.
