Hello fellow Tron owners; I just joined the club this weekend! I have been wanting Tron for a couple of years and I finally pulled the trigger on a fully modded one for sale at the Grand Ole Gameroom Expo by the guys at Music City Pinball.

I have been reading through the forum, but I still have a few questions that hopefully someone can answer easily:
1. Is there an easy way to tell which ramp lighting kit I have? It changes colors with the different modes, so I'm guessing it's total light show?
2. My fluorescent tube light went out in the backbox. Should I replace it or are there some better options out there for switching to LED or other?
3. One of my light cycles doesn't light up. I checked the connections and everything seems fine, so I guess it is the LED inside. Is this common and easily replaceable?

Thanks!

I'm thinking of replacing the fluorescent backbox light in my Tron Pro with an interactive LED kit. I've found some different options so far...any opinions or thoughts on these?

Flipper Fidelity also makes one

Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

Not on your list but the offering from Arcade Upkeep is what I use on my SAM games

Thanks, I've added both of these to the list!

Anyone installed PinGraffix BladeSkins? They look great, but just wondering how tight they would be.

Quoted from TZFAN:

Greetings Programs!
Has anyone seen in person a pair of PDI midnight blue mirrors on a Tron, and can maybe share a better pic than the their website?
Personal taste/opinion of course, but was it just too much blue, or just totally amazing and addictive like Tron itself? I have a nicely modded, beautiful LE (indeed they all are!) so have a tasty amount or chrome going on already, so currently I am deciding between "regular" mirrors or possibly go blue.
But, has anyone tried the $99 regular or black mirrors from Pinball Life, as compared to the OG, best in class, PDIs? The PDI regular mirrors are 40% more at $139 but their Black or Blue are, gulp, $299...
Thanks, Dan

I have these PinGraffix mirror blades on my Tron and love them. It has the cool mirror effect without making it too much of a distraction https://www.pingraffix.com/product-page/stern-tron-pinball-mirrorbladez

Quoted from punkin:

Hefty price tag there.

Yikes, I didn't even look at the price. I just went back and checked my original order and I purchased them directly on the Pingraffix Pinside shop for $169 on 11-16-2018. I know the covid effect and all, but that's double!
