They wont.  Homepin has replacements but shows them as out of stock.  PM him to find out when he will have them again.

yep had a look on RTBB as well no good from what I can see. I made a new post about it but I will ask here too. Any body know where I can get a Type 2 williams/bally flipper opto board close handy to Brisbane.

Mick, get Andy to come past, it will take him 5 mins to diagnose the issue properly onsite, and it will save u alot of grief, and save you from ordering a part which may not be needed.
Beaky can also check the IR board that controls the mini playfield, I know he has a spare onboard, and can also check his scources for any replacement part, and may not have to go outside of Australia IF his connection has some locally which he may be able to get over-nighted.
Theres plenty of help on the forum, but sometimes it can be easier to have a tech pop past.

I have the replacement optos instock (they need to be soldered to the original board)
I have replaced many of these before without a problem.
