Hi All, I have a Williams Swinger that I need to replace the kickout hole (located at the top of the playfield) base plate. One of the corners broke and the plate is sagging which is triggering the kicker all the time. I see that the 4 heads of the fasteners are rounded, not slotted like a screw.. are those nails and do I just gracefully pry them out.. I just want to check before doing anything and should I replace them with a screw.

thanks

Update: Using the #4 by 3/8" Phillips pan head sheet metal screw worked fine. If one of the mounting screw holes is underneath the switch leafs for the kickout then you will need to file down the head of that screw flat leaving enough of the Philips so you can still get a driver on it and it does not interfere with the switch leafs. At least this is how my Swinger is setup.

thanks
Steve
