usually when you buy form HAPPS the COIN DOOR, it usually comes with a coin mech just make sure you get the right one. If the price however is too much, you can look for cheaper used coin door (here or e-gay) and come coin mechs and you can hack it to accept any tokens/coins etc...Here is my tutotrial of how to hack a certain coin mech to accept any tokens/coins you shove in the hole.
