Mortal Kombat Back Door Panel
« on: January 11, 2021, 03:19:56 pm »
I'm restoring an original Mortal Kombat arcade cabinet that is missing the back door panel. I've already contacted places like the Arcade Boneyard, but wasn't able to find a replacement. So, I've decided to make my own. I've got the back panel cut and the heat vents inlayed. I also purchased a Midway back door lock and bracket set off eBay (shown below), but I can't find any places online with detailed dimensions or assembly instructions for how everything fits together.

I'm asking for some help from this community to provide some detailed pictures and/or measurements of where I need to place all the components and drill holes for the lock, etc. I would truly appreciate it. In return, for posterity, I will share the blueprints I've been crafting in Illustrator for making and assembling these back door panels for Midway cabinets (NFL Blitz, Killer Instinct).

Thanks in advance!
