Quoted from hassanchop:

Could anyone check their machine and confirm this, please?

What is it you want checked? I can take a picture of my translite and my side cabinet, would that help?

You could also try asking the TWD owners thread, that one likely gets more views than this one.

Quoted from hassanchop:

Haha I feel the same! I am looking for a pro at a nice price and when I look at this translite I wish I had money for a premium just to put the translite

I'd recommend saving a little longer and getting a premium, I love my pro, play it just about every day, but I passed on a Premium for a little more money and then recently watched a premium sell locally that I wished I would have held out for. If Pro's don't come around often where you live then maybe grab the pro and if a premium shows up flip the pro and grab the premium.

A signed print with the first drawing ever to be made for this project.... 3 years ago lol
And the stickers to put on the machine or other place... back of the car maybe?

Quoted from wtuttle:

Will we get something on glass, or just the rolled-up film that needs to be stretched over glass?
I've ordered in any event, so it is damn the torpedoes from here.

I don't know for certain, but I assume you're getting a standard rolled up translite... if you're swapping one from a TWD then you will need to pop off the plastic channels. They usually have double sided tape on them to both hold the translite down and stick to the plastic channels. So it takes a bit of prying to get the channels off. I swapped one on my MET when I had it and if done carefully the double sided tape can be peeled from the side of the glass with the translite on it and reused on the new translite without have to take the tape all the way off.

Quoted from hassanchop:

This is correct.

I never used tape to put translites. The tape will damage the translite after some time. Ok it will be on parts that will probably be out of the visible area, but still. You can easily lock the translite with those plastic channels.

I understand that for sure... my MET had the tape on it, so I left it on when I put the new translite in... my MET was from the first run too and no damage to the old translite when removing the tape, but given enough time I'd agree, if your plastic channels fit snug enough without the tape it should all hold together with friction just fine.
