Thanks for the info.

I'll be ordering the cap kit tomorrow from Bob Roberts, but I'm not planning on giving it the 48-1 in treatment anymore. I wanted to, but I think I'll leave this as a dedicated cab. I took a peek and did notice that I could take out those extra bolts. I'll be doing that for sure.

 I found a picture of Frizzles most famous marquee on KLOV.


Edit:  OOPS.  I just looked at the pic of Frizzles marquees again and I realized that it must be a variant of the original artwork.  Maybe this cabinet or Frizzles marquee is from a conversion kit and not an original cabinet.

I also nixed the idea of cutting a new hole for the 2nd button,  so button 2 (for the few games that use it,  for example Qix and Phoenix) is wired to the player 2 button...it actually works out pretty decently too.

Why not wire up both player 1 and 2 buttons as buttons 1 and 2 (leaving the real button 1 also wired up as button 1 in parallel)? That way buttons 1 & 2 would be close together side-by-side for the games that use 2 buttons, and for games that just use 1 button you could use either the real button 1 or the player 1 button.

All you'd need to do is add 1 short section of wire to what you've already done.

I've considered that...then I read somewhere that wiring P1 up as button 1 screws with the DIP switch system in the 48-in-1s...something about issues with saving the settings as it's pushing P1 and P1 start at the same time.  I think i may try it out just to see how it works...worst case,  I just remove the wire.
