OK - its all done.

Its always difficult to get good 'night shots' of pinballs but these are the best I can get you.
It looks quite good in real life.
It takes a LOT of time and effort to get it done - had I not been on holidays with 'not much to do' then I may not have done this mod  *!@

I didnt light the moon - I might one day but I feel it would need an Ablaze LED globe firing at it and then that light would need to be diffused, it also involves cutting a cirular hole in the speaker grill - so all thats for another day.

For now enjoy these...............

The 'overall shot' doesnt really show the cars in much detail.....plus the reflection of the lamps in the ramp affect this photo....




Here are some more detailed looks.....




The STARLIGHT sign definitely looks 'the bomb'   ^^^and I am glad I did it as well as the star - I feel to just do the tail-lights would be a little pointless to be honest.




It's just like being at the old drive in  *)*
I had also routered out these larger tail-lights to reduce the 'dot' effect - U can see it worked pretty well.




Once AGAIN a big thanks to Beaky for the drawings and PM's about the electricals mate , I could not have done this at all without your input.

To any other CFTBL owners considering this ( time large ) job , I have kept the scan of the STARLIGHT sign and can email it to whoever needs it.
