I have a Laser Ball Pin. I have upgraded all three of the flippers to the new style. On the lower right flipper there is/should be a lane change switch or ganged switch. This switch I do not have. With the exact parts/build as show per https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/vids-guide-to-upgradingrebuilding-flippers/page/3#post-773606, What switch (or part number) do I need to correctly fit the new style flippers?

Quoted from vid1900:

I don't remember Laser Ball having a lane change feature.
Does the upper flipper activate?

Yes, I believe that it does active the upper flipper. I bought a LB parts machine and tested the playfield and all the flippers worked. This picture is the ganged switch that came with the parts machine.

Yes sir. That in a nut shell makes since. Was not quite sure what it did.

With this new set up, what is the correct way to assy? Is there a drawing or picture that I can use?

Thanks for your help Vid
