Cypress, TX
Quoted from MustangPaul:It's a MUST HAVE.
Put mine in yesterday....lovin' it
Quoted from tilted81:Those purples look great! What kind and where from?
Most of that purple is coming from the lights in the back panel(where the electric towers are). I have (6)frosted SMD 1's (44/47 Bayonet style).

Quoted from NPO:Here's a lil trick I came up with. I placed 5/16" vacuum caps on the under body rails. It frustrates me when these things tear up the side walls of the cabinet or worse in my case, the Creeping Death artwork. Just a lil' preventative maintenance!
As mentioned...those are awesome to have....where did you get them? Link, PLEASE...I need to get these on my games, just installed 3 sets of mirror blades.
Quoted from billsfanmd:May join the club. Best way to learn rules? Video? link to a site? thanks
This one is pretty good
Quoted from bobbyt:Hey guys , I was looking at the Pinbits plastic set, I am getting the sparky plastic from Rickwh to help with those air balls, is it really worth installing all this protector stuff on a huo game, was looking at cliffys, mylar etc, this is my first nib game so I really don't know what I should do, thanks for your input
I bought the below for my Pro.

Thought these were cool too...so got them
Quoted from btw75:How are you liking this? I usually much prefer Mantis protectors and this looks like that style.
I haven't received it yet. I have installed the shooter lane protector pieces since I got those a couple weeks ago. This is the Mantis style I thought...since it doesn't come onto the playfield.
I did install these style protectors on the Bell and Jukebox areas of AC/DC Prem....and they fit great and use existing holes under the playfield.
I would agree that is a good way to go....works the best for me
Unless you get close to grave marker multiball(2 shots away). If I get all the markers down, then I go for it then.
SPARKY ALL DAY otherwise.

Quoted from Aurich:It's just plastic jammed on a spring. Put enough torque and twist on it and it will adjust.
I will try this....mine has the same problem.

Quoted from Tmezel:Would you guys be interested in translucent orange, red or yellow drop targets for the cemetery. Not sure if I would put decals on them yet. There would not be any extra lighting, just illuminated by natural lighting. This has been a long time coming.
YES PLEASE!
Quoted from epthegeek:Does anybody know if a 'mantis style' (inside the rim) protector for the mystery hole exists? I'd rather do that than the full collar cliffy style.

Quoted from epthegeek:Sweet. Thanks much for the link.
NP...it was really easy to install...compared to the jukebox/bell holes in AC/DC
Quoted from Tmezel:What color translucent drop targets should I put in the cemetery?
Vote for RED, though Purple would also be nice.
