Hey everyone, newest one now to bring Elvis in the building! I'm the one who bought the one from Glendale. Great find. Almost mint in Cobb webs in someone's pool house. Literally had to clean the webs of the table and out of the boxes. But, justt amazing. Not a broken plastic. Couple bulbs out and rubbers are nearly shot. Already ordered.
Batteries had started to leak but not down boards. So I'm good. Actually, great!

Been through entire thread, so just curious of opinions on a few things.

Going to install color DMD from another machine to see what I think. But some how the standard DMD really seems to fit this, so I'll see.

Going to install Cointaker's mirror blades, speaker light kit 7 and their Stern shaker motor. Any thoughts on any of those? Any experience with their shaker vs stems?

Also thinking about updating to LEDs. I love the current glow, but just thinking the power and heat on old plastics might make it survive longer. Not even one warped plastic. Crazy. Thoughts?

Anything else? I've read about sound. Don't think anything has been updated in nine years. What am I missing out on?

Thanks and hope to be able to lend support back someday on this way underrated amazing pin!

Looks amazing. Already order inserts and speaker kit.... well and a few other need to have things. As for the LEDs any recommendation on who to go with? Ebay has this which include shipping and I always liked Pinballbulbs. A little more expensive, but it looks like his kit offer LED strip for curtain and center drain.

So disregard the last. Just spoke with Mark and Pinballbulbs and he includes both strips in the kit and made a good deal. Looking forward to see the upgrade. Hope this helps someone if you're considering. Thanks all.

Toronto is a long walk for me. But, after allot of review, I'm going with the strips and LEDs. Thank you!

Oh yah, already on their way. Embarrassed to tell you all how overboard I went. My wife loves Elvis! Thanks!

Quoted from fast1981:

I had one special made about 2 years ago. I went thru http://www.arcadeupkeep.com/ The person who built it was Brandon Hartman. The cost for mine was $125. Hope that helps.

Brandon was great. Jumped on this myself. Did you get the flashers with yours, as well. It is an option. Sounds like the flashers go off in addition to Elvis on the surrounding pictures in sync with the flashers on the table.

So would you do it again or is it too much going on in the backglass?

Do you know if you can disconnect them if I order and don't like or do you recall if it is all tied together?

How much did yours differ from one in video?

I'm planning to order.

Thanks!

And everyone, if you haven't ordered the TV mod from Sparky, it's amazing and you'll be really happy with all that little box displays.
First mod in my opinion. Just amazing.

Very helpful. Thank you! Really excited about this mod.

I installed a Cointaker shaker motor. It works pretty well but When it shakes on high, it literally rattles the Elvis pin. I have one installed in my Aerosmith and it is smooth shaking. There is nothing loose in the cab and I even removed the coin box. I have another super strong shaker in my star trek and it too is smooth.

Wondering if there is something wrong with it or if it can be adjusted? It is smooth on periodical shaking, but when it's hits high on "all shook up" and it sounds like a Harley rattling like crazy. So bad, it's not worth having in pin.

I emailed Melissa at Cointaker and she didn't think Elvis has a code for a shaker or thinks it needs a chip? As you owners know, Elvis comes wired and labeled for a shaker.

Any ideas or help?

Thanks all.
