There is some scrape damage & paint loss on the inside of my Funhouse & was wondering if anyone have used those mirror blades & how you like it? Thanks

Before you install the blades, fix whatever is causing the damage or you will just scratch your blades the first time you lower the playfield. Likely is a flanged screw or washer that is too far to the outside of the rail.

Thanks.... yes I do need to figure out what's going on there. I googled blades for Funhouse and didn't find anything.

Looks like the ball gate hinge is rubbing on the side. Try and bend it in a bit.

I put mirrors on my funhouse, they do look great. like others said, find the culprit scraping screw first.
If you can't find blades, drop me a pm and I'll look up the guy I bought mine from

Anyway you "do something" to the blades to get them to look like Funhouse Mirrors?

The blades made for any Bally/Williams game form the 90's will fit Funhouse, my friend put some on his, they look very good on this game.

Not all games are, but Funhouse is a great candidate for mirror blades. I've got them in mine. Really adds to the disorienting, shiny, bright amusement park / funhouse feel.

Where is the best place to buy mirror blades for the Bally/Williams games?

I saw a Funhouse at TPF that had mirror blades and all LED's. If it had a DMD, you would have thought it was a 2014 game! Looked freaking beautiful!

Are these blades pretty thin? I see there's not much room at all between the pf & the walls.

Here are three that I found online. Looking to get a set for my funhouse as well. Anyone have any recommendations? Are these all similar or do the price differences reflect differences in quality?

At TPF the Funhouse was in the Pinball Side Mirrors booth. That was a completely restored machine, new cabinet, etc.

Are you saying that the blades fit because it was a new cabinet?

Nope, not in any way. I was indicating that the restored Funhouse machine at TPF was demonstrating Pinball Side Mirrors.

I had used the pinball decals ones on my FH and they were really nice. My cabinet was tight and was a pain to lift the PF. Make sure your cabinet has space on either side. They look great though on this game!

Thanks for those great pictures. That does look GREAT!

I looked at my edges again & I can barely fit a business card in there. How would I make more space so the blades would fit?
