Quoted from LOTR_breath:

I've searched Pinside and can't really find a good thread on this. I found Vid's guide to building a rotisserie, but I'm looking for advice on the actual swap. I will be attempting my first playfield swap soon on an AFM. I will surely have more questions after I get started but before I even start I'm wondering....

1. Do you start with the topside or bottom side?
2. Should I remove wiring first or last?
3. Would GI lighting be the last to remove?
4. Should the swap be done a section at a time, or do an entire side at a time?
5. Should the rotisserie be used for both the old playfield and the new playfield?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Some good information in this guide by Robert Winter:
