Cracking job you have done there bud. Like most people SF2 is one of the games I grew up with (im 25 so its kind of my own personal 'golden era' game). Its soo nice to see an SF2 cab looking that clean. :applaud:

Geez, at least wait till I am done...Anyway, one thing about these cabs I don't like is that there is no volume control. The only way to change the volume is a little potentiometer mounted on the pcb. So I de-soldered it from the pcb, put some long wires on it and I am going to relocate it to just inside the coin door. I don't want to tear the machine apart just to adjust the volume. Here are some pics and a Video of what I am talking about. Also, you will see some pics of Mortal Kombat II. I've had the pcb for ages and this is my first chance to test it out as I have not had a jamma cab till now.
And the Video...

After giving the sides a nice clean rubdown, they turned out to be in pretty good shape, so I went ahead and applied the sideart. Then I installed the cupholders I have had in my inventory for a while. I cleaned up the front kickpanel piece but it still needs to be replaced. I'll get to it at a later date. That plus the new t-molding should make it 100% restored. (In my own opinion anyway). Here are some more pics...

I just use one of those "energy saver" type fluorescent bulbs that screw into regular light sockets, in both of my Dynamo cabinets. Even though there are two sockets, one bulb, of the lowest wattage they make, is enough. It lights up the marquee fine.
