Thanks fellas. Finally tracked down the broken wire that was stopping the couple of lights working, it broke off the daisy chain at the supercharger sign so that is now fixed and everything is finally working as it should with no errors. Basically all finished now except for the sound board which might be here in the morning since aus post will be open, sent it to Tony to be repaired just incase it was an ic or something i couldn't test. Put the backbox light board in this afternoon with its leds, cleaned the backglass and put it back in. The led kit from cointaker came with 2 nice really high powered led's for the headlights on the backglass, the photo dosn't do it justice. So now a before and after photo and a shot of all the leds on so people can decide if they'd want it for theirs. Thanks to Tony Turner for the great project pin and his help with questions & repairing my sound board, and thanks to all you guys who helped with input over the whole restoration.

I'm "floored" - VERY nice mate  ^^^

That simply does not look like the same machine. The front door panel was always going to be a challenge, but you have done a great job in fixing it.

Amazing restoration - some really impressive work done on this game. The LEDs just "top it off" - especially in the last shot with the flash off.

Congrats !
