Better late than never.

A ton of Addams Updates. First the Bookcase Assembly Rebuild.




The Switches on the Bookcase Assembly MUST be replaced. It is too much of a hassle just leaving the old ones as they will fail if they are in this bad of shape.



Cleaned, polished and looks like new ;




Fully assembled and ready to test ;



Decal installed as per customer request ;



This Bookcase Assembly will adjusted once in the game.

Moving on the the Speaker Panel Assembly. The speakers will be replaced win the Pinsound Speakers, and a ColorDMD installed. The Speanel Pabel plastic itself had a scratch, so it is going to be replaced. Not worth polishing it out, lets just go with the new.



Sorry about the lower res pictures - not sure what happened there...
Sanded Down ready to be repainted ;



Repainted ;



.. and this is what I hate - The mounting screws are similar to pop bumper twist nails, but longer. Lucky for me, the Original setup is not going to be used, so I can get away with using the standard pop bumper screws ;



The Speaker Grill is repainted and the mounting holes countersunk so that tightening them does not scratch the backside of the new speaker panel.
Two sided tape is used to hold the new speaker panel plastic in place ;



Test fit with the speakers and ColorDMD installed. New chrome trim also installed - "H" Channel and "U" channel.
