Quoted from frenchmarky:I always liked those pal nuts, chrome is snazzier looking than the rubber caps. I don't think I've ever had one come loose. I'd never put the rubber tips on a game that originally came with the chrome nuts, doesn't look right. When removing I just pull up on them a little at first while turning, no big deal.
I ended up putting black rubber ones from PBR on a Blackout I had. To me they fit the darker theme of the game better than chrome would have.

Doubt I still have any pictures, but I picked up a Bally Viking several years back that had the ground braid held on and, in some cases, connected using thumb tacks.

Quoted from play_pinball:I work in TV and can tell you, they're not building a new cabinet to greek out old designs. That's probably washable (if you're lucky) paint sprayed on the side of a Whirlwind.
Looks like they may have done the same on the trans-light.

Those holes are likely tied together on the back side of the circuit board. You can confirm with an ohmmeter.
