Quoted from cletus:

The hole positions that @buthamburg marked were spot on for the most part. I took things off of the old playfield before I drilled so I could verify the hole positions. I only had to adjust for one hole near the right big-kick.
Now to will polish all of the stainless parts to a mirror shine before mounting them to the new deck.
All of the side-rails and some of the wire guides are already transferred over and i’ve officially moved to the rotisserie workbench.

Does your game have light boards or individual sockets for all the inserts? If I remember correctly he used the dimple pattern for the individual sockets and the light boards don't align to those.

Quoted from cletus:

My cpr mirrored backglass Came in today!
It is glorious! The glass is a little shorter than the original so I might need to shim it to prevent it from falling out.
Anyway, here’s the before and after pictures. I purposefully took them with reflections so the mirroring shows through.[quoted image][quoted image]

That looks better than expected!
