St Pro has this cover but Le doesn't. Drop target causes air balls from time to time. Can we avoid this? Will Stern send the cover for Le customers?

Hello All,
Our ST:LE protector set is designed to stop airballs by covering up the Vengeance shot entrance just past the lip of the drop target.

The plastic is a complete cover for the vengeance drop target area. On our game the opto wire was in the path of the ball on a steel ball guide, so we put a notch in the back of the plastic to re-position the wire out of the balls way along a support pole. You can see the before and after here.

It is part out of ST:LE Protector set, which is found here with and without blue sling covers with an engraved hex pattern.

Is it hard to install this cover? Could you describe this. Should I remove something to install this cover? What about this cable?
Can you deliver it to Poland?
Quoted from Squall:Tmzel - but your plastic doesn't prevent from air balls when drop target goes up.
Got it, balls will freely fly. In another thread that plastic was broken because of the air ball.
Pinbits makes a good product. Its your choice to deal with air balls or get that pinbit plastic. Nice thing is, that if it breaks you can buy another.

Hello All,
We're confident our vengeance lane cover will not break. If it does, we will ship you a new one free of charge, as with all of our protectors.
The cover is a very easy install, you loosen the screws at both entrances that fasten the plastics, as well as the plastic around the front pop bumper. The protector will slide in, grab the opto wire, and requires very little centering to get it just right.
Our protector set also includes a PETG piece that goes in front of the red plastic, covering both the plastic and the edge will dramatically reduce the chance for the ball to strike it and break it. (seen in the photos)
Our website supports international shipping to most countries. If you have any trouble with our website simply email your cart to [email protected] and I will return a shipping quote.
Thank you
Pam,
Any chance you can email me back on my issue with the X-Men protector set having the wrong size piece for the blackbird plastic and missing protectors for the plastics in the bumper area? I sent pictures of the differences, but have not heard back in over a month. You were also going to compensate me or send the missing plastics.
I still love Pinbits protectors and suggest them for all machines. Hoping to get the X-Men pro ones fixed.
Pinbit's does well to stand behind their products. I had a plastic protector break and they shipped a replacement out immediately.

I must be having a grey moment. I received the protectors tonight, I ordered the ST:LE protector set, but I can't seem to find the piece that you are talking about in this post: the Vengeance airball protector. Pam can you single out that piece for me in a pic?? By the way the blue etched sling-shot pieces look very nice and well worth it.
Quoted from cleland:You can use either the single piece on the left which covers the whole vengence opening.
Or, the combo two pieces on the right if you want to leave it open.image-214.jpg 423 KB
I didnt get the piece on the left, must have been left out?
Hello all,
It is possible you bought the protectors before the addition was made -- we made it from the feedback provided to us. Simply shoot me a PM with your email and I will mail out the piece to you. We appreciate your support and patience.
Thank you
Thumbs up to Pinbits, I got an email, a few days back actually, saying the addition is in the mail. Thanks Pam!
