Playfield details - Williams HotLine
« on: April 30, 2016, 03:33:58 PM »
Hi folks,

Just dry assembling my HotLine playfield after a major re-vamp and I'm not convinced the arrangement it had when I bought it was correct.  Can anyone out there with a Hot Line take a couple of pictures of their A and B lanes at the top of the playfield (pics of mine attached).  I had two yellow lane guides fitted on the outside of the top plastics that look quite out of place.

Cheers,

Scozza.

I think they should be on the game as you said ,
 I got this pic from the ipdb for you to look at  , as you can see , they are fitted under the plastics on the outside lane(s).

If you were to leave them out and just fit rubbers , the ball would probably get hung up and slow down as it went through the lane

Thanks Ralph,

I might fit them & see how the game plays, I found one of my before pics and as you can see it has a plastic on the left and a rubber on the right.

Cheers,
Scott.
