Will modern coin mechs work in older SS machines (e.g. Dolly Parton)?

So I just bought some new mechs for my STTNG and realized that these might be a good thing to get for a Dolly machine I've been helping a guy repair. The mechs in that are pretty gross and they seem to be doing the same thing my STTNG was doing that caused me to replace my mechs (rejecting almost all coins). Since mechs are cheap, it's worth $10 for me to try to get it working in Dolly, since it's on location, than mess about.

Question was, are there any differences I need to be aware of, or can I just grab, say, these:

I haven't seen Dolly recently to remember how standard it is, but it has the original coin door (and the owner probably wants to keep it that way).

Thoughts?

Yeah the actual mech that validates or rejects the coin. I decided, as much as I hate incomplete things, I'll just install one of my new ones in my STTNG for now and just bring the other with me next time I need to service Dolly and see if I can get it to fit.

Thanks for the help all!
