Quoted from mwong168:Also be careful and go slow while drilling your ramps to zip tie the fiber wires.
TIP: Start with an extra small drillbit to center the hole. Than upscale the drillbit to actual zip tie size. And yes; go slow.

Looks great! How does it interact with the gameplay compared to the LE?
I would expect it to change color at random...
Anyone who's interested -> I got some of those nice TRON lightcycle mods left. My just bought LE [] did not have them, so had to put them into there too! Anyway installing is easy, no drilling and/or cutting needed! Also easy to remove. Go for 169/set.
Made a thread on those here: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/tron-lepro-lightcycle-mod-last-sets
Quoted from kporter946286:Tron in Da house! Thanks Pinballjon!! Got me Eli's ramp kit already to install and will be gettin theV3.1 arcade in a couple weeks!!

If you like I can get you a set of those sweet looking lit up light cycles !
Quoted from kporter946286:Also anyone know where to get that sweet Flynn's arcade sign and the stickers that go on that piece that raises out of playfield in front of the rectifier?
That FLYNN sign mod I ordered from here: http://www.dkpinball.com/DKWP/?page_id=152
If you like I can hold a light cycle set for you on hold till next month. No problem...
Another great mod I would recommend are a very nice set of inner decals from "hassanchop": https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/tron-custom-side-board-decals
Quoted from MinusWorlds:Been a TRON weekend. Set my personal best score. And just spent all afternoon installing awesome Comet LED's, Arcade cliffy and Hallmark lightcycles. Thanks Comet, HENSBROOKER and Pinball Life!
Coming later this week Pingraffx mirror blades and Eli's ramp kit...image.jpg (Click image to enlarge)image.jpg (Click image to enlarge)image.jpg (Click image to enlarge)
May I provide a nice tip what to do with those two original light cycles?? This is what I did to them in my LE :

This isn't for the heart-fainted -> you have to drill your apron + the cycles...
- First I glued the tyres with a drop of epoxy glue to fixate them (stop the turning)
- Than pre-drilled a hole into the tires, so the screw (they were previously attached with) will fit.
(You could also use the small posts which they are attached with originally but I wanted them to ride directly onto the apron).
- Measure out the newly drilled holes on the apron -> use a sharpy.
- Remove the apron.
- Drill the 4 holes and you can fix the lightcycles from the inside out.
It's a very nice addition, like original and does not interfere with gameplay at all!
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:I know what I'll be doing tonight thanks Centerflank!!! I hear the black rubber disc is a bitch to remove. I am going to try and heat it up with a heat gun to remove it and see if that works. Any tips would be appreciated.

Heating up works ... But try to use a hair dryer to prevent overheating. Also remove the srews and backplate to prevent breaking.
Final pieces of glue and rubber I removed by using a very sharp chisel.
Than cleaning/degrease the to be glued surface and put the rubber in place.
There was no need for additional glue...
