That's exciting... and I'm in for an Apron made of steel and this fantastic motion tracker mod.

Mmmmhh, I can remember that I improved the speaker panel somehow.
I think the main difference was the recessed grill and the interchangeability.
Ah yes, and the limited quantity.
Yes, Beowulfz07 did a first design for the panels, that's right.
Of course I used the same shape of the original panels, why not?
I mean the main difference was the grill and how the panel was made of.
I also considered the light effect and changed the line up of the LED stripe and use a mirror foil in the backbox for a better impression.
I just tried to "create" theses parts for an easy install for every owner, especially for those who didn't have the skills for workmanship.
And it's true that Felix asked me for "permission" to reproduce the speaker panels, because I only made a limited vlaue.
I have sent him information and the manual how to do that - that's all.

I'm very happy to see your progress and I'm sure this will be a master piece.
Those who are undecided will later be annoyed that they did not get one.

Installed my Apron and did all the wiring beneath the playfield.
Next step is to prepare a wooden panel for the strobe controller in the cabinet and a different solution for the strobe switch.
I have a custom made backpanel and a frame around the plex made of alu.
If there's a damage I can swap the plex in seconds.
I don't want to drill any holes in the frame, so I decided to use the given bracket under the Xeno.

Today I finished my suggestion of a perfect integration of the strobe controller into the cabinet
Some decals and a wooden basis mountet next to the coin box.
The next step was to swap the broken plastics at the slingshots... this time protected with PET-G makrolon.
Finally I have to test my solution for the strobe light switch.
I use longer screws and the same bracket with the tongue switch.
Some adjustment and then it should work properly.
Today all the work is finished and it works very well.
Thank you Mark for this great mod.
This is Averell with the last modifaction signing off.
If the Motion Tracker doesn't switch from W/Y screen to the Tracker and vice versa, check the wiring at the switches.
Take a closer look in the Apron manual and read the instruction carefully.
In my opinion there's just a wrong pin plugged at the micro switch.
