Noticed the upper playfield hold down post is missing the screw head and it appears to be sheared off. Searched the forums and Marco but cant locate the part needed. Any help would be appreciated. Also the Energy Solar Ramp metal is torn and likely to fail soon. Any replacement rivets and metal available or do I need to fab it myself? Thanks in advance for helping a noob out.

I think you’re looking for a stand off post. I am not sure what size, but the BoP manual ‘should’ give you the exact size needed.

For the ramp; the flaps you can order, but you’ll need a rivet press capable of doing those rivets

Thanks for taking the time to reply. The Pinbot manual https://www.arcade-museum.com/manuals-pinball/P/Pinbot_OPS.pdf is difficult to understand unless you are a pinball terminology expert, I am not. I don't see it referenced in the playfield parts list pictured below. Page 48 references playfield part numbers but I am unsure.

Freeplay40 makes a ramp if you didn't want to fix yours. Unsure about the post. I have a hard time finding the correct ones also. Possibly one of the ramp mounting posts.

Thanks for the info. I messaged @freeplay40 about the ramp.

This is a better pic I found online circled in blue of the post I need if anyone knows a part number. Its hexagonal, not round. Thanks.

Get a longer one and cut it and tap it. And if it is threaded all the way through, like some are, then no tap needed. Problem solved. Wait... someone needs to measure one right? Who has their pinfield off to replace jet bumper lights with LED’s? Anyone want to measure it for him?

When taking parts off to replace the bulbs under the Vortex Corkscrew ramp I noticed there was another exact elongated hex nut on the mini playfield. It holds the lower left corner down at the wire dump ramp. I swapped them since this location is easier to access. Still don't know what the name is or where to get a replacement. Also need to know the lamp # for the lamps in the pic. I read other posts and understood #1251 larger lamp for certain areas and #89 lamp for everything else. Ordered both from Marco, they are the same size and too large for what I need. Any help would be appreciated.
