Resurrecting the thread and hoping for some advice. I'm in the unfortunate position of needing to replace the rear left opto in the vengeance lane. Appears all ramps have to be removed to get to that opto. To remove left ramp, appears I need to remove warp, and in order to remove warp I need to remove the right ramp.

I'm trying to figure out how the warp ramp comes out. It goes to the back and through the back panel. Unlike other games I've worked on with ramps that go to the back the rear panel doesn't lift out of place so the ramp can be removed. Any tips?

Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

I no longer own a Stern Star Trek, but I had to change out the Vengeance optos on my Premium about a year and a half ago. As far as I recall, I didn't have to remove any ramps - just the Vengeance ship and some plastics. Unfortunately, the entire process was a PITA nonetheless.
I think I pretty much reused the directions to do so that Zitt had provided to install his pop bumper caps (one is partially under the Vengeance if I recall correctly). You might try contacting him.

I have to change the opto on the opposite side. I can see how I would get access to the optos on the right. It's the left I'm struggling with.
