I’ve had difficulty sourcing these flipper button replacements, the cabinet has a hole bored out perfectly for these buttons with a retainer on the inside and a spring behind the button to give it the return action. Steve from PBR tried to help but the buttons he had were not the right ones.
This is essentially the only thing holding up completion of my restoration at this point! Help is greatly appreciated!

In general, Sonic parts are Williams parts.

It’s a standard Williams flipper button. Post in the “looking for EM parts thread”. If not, the ones you have should clean up nicely. Just remove that old washer and polish.

I can’t seem to find any part number for this button.

I will try that. This one can’t polish up nicely, it was severely rusted and it is misshaped and chewed up. PBR didn’t have them so I’m not sure who else would have this style? I only see the buttons with a cup it sits inside.
I’d need the washer and spring for this, the whole assembly. It was destroyed.

These are a couple things that I still have in my Spanish game parts stash. I can’t tell if they’d work for you or not. Outside of the housing they look very similar to yours, but it appears that yours have another e-ring groove right below the washer. Is that correct? These just have 2 grooves at the bottom.
