I believe these ones are supposed to be on that cabinet:
My DK Jr. is equipped with this type, you can check out my resto-thread for reference (in my sig) if you'd like. Though, I haven't worked on it yet since it's still sitting at my bro-in-law's place. :(

As for the coin-door, I had a lot of fun restoring mine for my cocktail cabinet. Remove all the pieces from the door, get yourself a wire wheel for your drill, and use it to scrap off the existing rust and paint. Then you can grab some Rustoleum Hammered Black paint and re-paint it.
It'll come out looking like new!
Keep going, you're doing great so far. :applaud:

Check this site out for coin mechs: http://www.asahiseikousa.com/product_info.php/cPath/2/products_id/28
They also sell parts like face plates etc.
Nice work by the way.

Here is the new bezel
And the new marquee. Attached is the bezel instruction sticker and coin instruction sticker

Is the bezel image stuck onto the plastic/glass screen or is it printed onto the bezel?
mr_doles:
Wow that is really hard to tell, I am sitting here looking at it and it is hard to tell. I looks like it is printed on but there is a protective layer over it so I can't really tell unless I pull that off and I don't want to do that yet. My wife an I both looked at it and tried to see if we could get a fingernail under the picture and neither one of us could. So I am going to say with 95% certainty that it is printed on. I got it from Arcadeshop.com if that tells you anything.
