I have just finished putting LEDs thru-out my Independance Day.  Leds in all the inserts and some general illumination brings this game alive 1000 percent. If u buy a ID4 u have to do LEDs for sure. Massive improvement.

Fun game. The F16 jets screaming past on the dotmatrix display are visually excellent and with the audio cranked up is alot of fun. Very unique sounds of the jets, I havent heard anything like it before. The game is fun and fast. Multiball is good. Locking balls behind the Alien is a blast, and the machine has excellent ramp shots from all 3 flippers. Spares wise, u can buy 2 out of the 3 ramps brand new. Otherwise everything on the machine is service-able. Fun machine. Plenty of bang for ya buck. Video mode is good. A excellent Sega game for 1997. and the super pop bumpers (known as super pops on a sega) are fast and furious like u have never heard pop bumpers going off before. A great Sega feauture.  Expect to pay between $1800 unshopped and up to $3,000 for a smick one.

I hope it works out for you if u buy one.
