Hey guys,

              So i've been looking for a while now and I'm not sure what to get. My coin door is a Tempest door. All that its missing is the Red coin reject buttons on the top. Im not sure where to get replacements for these. Could someone send me in the right direction so i get the right ones? Thanks

Tempest had a Coin Acceptors brand (a.k.a. "Coinco") coin door. Some of the video arcade parts suppliers still have NOS stock of these reject button, but the supply is drying up. Several years ago Coin Acceptors and Ardac were bought out by Money Controls. Then Money Controls proceeded to liquidate Ardac and closed out the coin door and amusement game products division of Coin Acceptors.

I bought a couple of replacement coin return buttons for my Tempest coin door about 6 months ago from an outfit that I think was in Florida.  They work okay Except they are red and not orange.  I had to modify my springs a tad because the post on the back of the button wasn't long enough to allow the pring to keep the button pushed out all the way.  I also got some coin return flaps and coin entry and return bezels.
I had to modify the bezels to get them to fit, and the coin return flaps aren't even close to the right thing.

I'll try to find the name of the company I got them from.  As stated, the coin retun buttons (red instead of orange) are accpetable, the bezels sketchy, and the flaps are garbage.
