Good place to find replacement coin return button?
« on: August 29, 2005, 06:58:07 am »
I'm rebuilding a cab that has a 4 player coin door slot.

When I nabbed it, 3 of the coin return buttons had 2x 25 cent labels on them and the red one DID NOT.

Okay..no worries I thought.  I'd just print up a label and slide it in there.

When I took it apart at home, I discovered that I can't slide any label in there.  It just doesn't work that way.

So I've been looking everywhere for a replacement coin return button --- red --- 2x 25 cent type with NO luck!

Any ideas where I can get one of these?

You didn't specify what brand coin door you had, but most of the rejects come apart.

Replacement rejects can be found, most of the time.  Post your brand of coin door, or better yet, a picture.

Every brand of coin door uses only reject buttons made for that particular manufacturer.

Here's a picture of the red one that is MISSING the label and a picture of the ones in my cab that HAVE the right stickers.

I was really hoping I could slide a "home made" label into the red coin return button, but that apparently isn't possible.

Anybody have any ideas where to find a replacement?

Like it says, it's a Coin Controls button. Try the link AlexC gave you, they should have a 50 cent one.

Other than that you might have to go straight to Happ, or better still Ponyboy..over in the buy+sell forum.
