I just got a CP, and mine does not have the Danger Zone gate/switch assy. It is part # WIL A-22168-4301. Is there anyone that has one they can sell me, or knows where I can find one? I would really like to have that section of the playfield functioning properly. Thanks a bunch in advance for whoever is able to point me in the right direction.

Thanks a bunch Llyod!! No wonder why everyone says you are the MAN!!! Guess I will get this one unless I can find one state-side

Well thanks for the help!! Part is ordered, and should be here after a long journey from kangaroo country!!

Is there a reason that the gate/switch was left off? It seems like it was a cheap part back then, so couldn't have been about cost. Does anyone know why the decision was made to scrap it, but leave in the game/codes?

I have looked at the 3 posts where the gate is supposed to go, and have some thoughts/questions...

1. Is the middle post there for the wire form on the gate to stop from to much movement, and not for it to attach to. The two outer posts are where it screws in at, correct?

2. Can the middle post be removed b/c it looks like it might make it harder for the ball to get into the "Danger Zone" entrance with out harming game play?

3. How many posts are supposed to be in the area for the "plinko" effect when the ball heads down to the out lanes?

ALSO.... Lets see some of the other CP owners mods/toys you have done!!! I can't find much out there in the toy dept for the game that people have made, so come on show off your CP goodies

I will start.... I made a topper out of some boxing gloves I had, but everyone else probably has too haha

Yeah I did know that... It is a joke running at my place right now. Have been trying to figure out what could work well for a "hand/fist" topper... Was thinking the painted Hulk fists would work, but Stern had to go and make Avengers....

I will take some pics for you once the gate gets here. Should have this week hopefully. I am going to try with/without the middle post to see what works best for me.

so I got the DZ switch in over the holiday installed. Was impressed with how fast I got it from Down Under.... Thanks again LTG for helping me find the part!!! Here is how I installed it. I decided to go with the middle post out. Can't figure out why they would leave it out of the game since all the code is still there (music, lighting, effects). It adds a lot more to the fights now for me

Wow this is my original post lol. I think I have an extra Danger Zone switch. Had 2 with my CP, but of course only used one. It is probably somewhere in my parts.
