Well i got my translite
After first buying a new repo first and sending it back.
The repo one was shocking.
I would have had to cut out the area in front of the the displays as it was printed on a opaque piece of plastic not clear.
Then i would have had to stick lettering to the back of it where the "ball in play" & "match" lights go because these areas had no lettering.
also it had 2 different shades of color (like when you print something with your printer and it is low on ink)

The second one i bought is about a 7 out of 10, it has a few areas which light is shining through.
but i should be able to repair most of it.

And the new score displays are on the way

PinballJoe71 on Ebay seems to advertise lots on a regular basis.  I'm pretty sure he also owns BCW in Campbellfield VIC.


Just works at BCW, me thinks

Looking good. The LED conversion certainly works OK, doesn't it.

after pricing up a set of second hand displays and master display board it worked out about the same price as i also would have had to buy  a new glass or 2 for them also.
and these type of led displays were a little harder to find, no one on ebay ever seems to sell them.
