Help save a TZ, looking for Restoration parts

Wanted

After finishing my Sorcerer restoration, I think I may becoming the patron saint of horrible looking pinball machines in need of restoration. Thanks to a good friend of mine, a very badly abused Twilight Zone will soon be in my possession. It is a German re-import, and it got picked over a little bit before it landed back here in the states.

The machine has a restorable cabinet, and playfield, but I am really hoping that someone out there has a parts machine or stash that they would be willing to sell me the following parts from:

1. A-16326 Ball Guide Assembly. This is the lower exit to the Power mini-playfield. It is missing on mine.

2. I need the ramp guards for the middle ramp. I think I have located a source for these overseas, but I want to see if I can get a set state side first.

3. I need the opto harness from under the playfield. This harness runs from the 10 opto driver board, to each of the optos in the game. It should have 4 plugs where it interfaces with the opto driver board, and a connection for each of the opto from under the playfield. This is harness is separate from the switch matrix harness.

I am sure I will need other parts as I get into this thing, but these are the biggies I know for certain I need.

Ok, I think I have located most of the parts I originally listed. However, I still need of a couple of switches with harness. My main plastic ramp is missing both of the switches. Does anyone have these two assemblies for sale?
