WTB - Street Fighter 2 Dynamo Control Panel

[RyuHayabusa78]

I'm looking for a Street Fighter 2-style Dynamo control panel with the corner cuts. The size I'm needing is right at 23 11/16 wide. The button holes on the one I have now are uneven and there are too many holes drilled in the really fix them. You can't see it, but under the control panel sticker is 9 holes per side. It was like this when I got it. Here's a pic of what I have now, and the style I'm looking for:

Just to make a Suggestion as I had the same issue with a dynamo cut corner control panel.. I had one that had a trackball on it, and various other sloppy holes, so what I did was just put a piece of plexiglass on top of it, drilled the plexi according to the button layout I wanted. I mean if the thing is like swiss cheese and you can't drill the holes where you want them it's another story, but to be honest those control panels are rock solid and you can drill holes kissing / overlapping each other and shouldn't have any issues.

Well, I had thought about getting a thin sheet of metal and having it welded to the top and then having new holes drilled but I wanted to see if I could get a replacement panel first. Those are the two routes I'd rather take instead of using a piece of plexiglass. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Why not fill the holes with Bondo or the like, let it set, sand smooth, and re-drill?

I've used this method myself you will not find a better solution.

I scoured Ebay and every site I could find that sold control panels and had no luck locating a 6 button dynamo cp. I just decided to take it to a local metal shop and have a sheet of metal welded over the top of the panel and have new holes drilled. Thanks for the info though.

How much did that cost if you dont mind me asking?

Parts and labor, $110. I bit more than I was hoping but I lack the tools and space to do it so it's worth it for me.

Thats cool. Thats what I figured it would be. Yeah, same here, luckily a buddy of mine had a grinder that I used to make the one that I got fit.

Here's the finished product. Turned out pretty nicely.

Here are a couple of pics of my machine with the newly redrilled control panel. Got a new CPO on the way from Game Grafix on the way.
