Does anyone have a picture of what they did for the e-clip mod on the Magneto spinner? I see that there is a good 1/8" play and that it vibrates up and down everytime the magnet is energized and makes that awful rattling sound. Can I simply install the e-clip without creating a groove for it?

Thanks, DugFreez ! That exactly what I wasn't able to find for some reason. I'm picking up some 5/16" e-clips today and we'll see how it goes.

I installed the Tmezel Newton Ball mod last night. After installing it and removing it 3 times I finally got it! Some tips for those heading into this:

- It is impossible to adjust the switch contacts once the mod is installed so I recommend adjusting it before final installation - Mount the new switch to the base and dry fit it with only the newton ball and ball bearing in place. You will have to squeeze the switch together to get it smoothly through the playfield notch. Check the switch gap and adjust as necessary, including a small gap between the small ball and the angled blade that it hits.

- Screwing the posts down through the playfield can be tough and you'll be tempted to grab some pliers to twist them down. Instead, use the screws that came with the mod to attach the top cover plate and screw them into the top of the post . Once they hit bottom it will turn the post and make it easy to screw the post all the way in using your screwdriver. Then take the screw out. Easy! I thought of this only after using pliers on the first one and scratching it pretty good.

Now to figure out how to mod and install the giant Wolverine on top of the mod or find a small one on Ebay...

Quoted from Kenswift:

the new sound mod code is a blast

Are you referring to the FatPanda mix?
