Quoted from TractorDoc:Started the work of wiring in the GI lamp sockets today. I chose to go with insulated wire vs. bare. I'll have to improvise a bit where the subway lives as the original bare wire fit between the playfield and subway with no clearance issues -- that will not be the case with the insulated wire.

Also fitted the lower flipper mechs in place. . . but more on that later.
Looking good. Did you make tracing of the wire path from the old pf?
Everything is looking great.. nice job
I couldn't stop looking at the cabinet paint job. I think it turned out terrific.
Quoted from TractorDoc:Sooo I'm still waiting to hear back from Outside Edge, but I thought I'd share what I'm dealing with that is holding up progress.
It is my understanding that at one time in the manufacturing process something was left out of the chemical mixture in the hardtop adhesive. The resulting issue was the artwork could pull away from the underside of the clear polycarbonate hardtop. I think this Frontier hardtop may be a victim as the following pictures may show. I've not introduced a lot of stress/action to the hardtop surface and I'm seeing several areas pull away.

It is looking like I will have to pull this hardtop and install another. Two steps forward. . . one step back.
Man thats a big bummer. I didn't know that was a potential issue with the hardtop. Between worrying about clear chipping on a new pf, and art pulling from a hardtop, no sure thing either way. Thanks for sharing that..
