Just received my unreal coin door and two CDR buttons, slapped it on my cabinet, threw in some 5V wires from my computer and voila!!  Randy, you are the MAN!  Thought I'd share some pics.



Lakersfan:

Looks great in those pictures. Is it really that 3D looking in person? I know you got the CDR buttons on there, but the rest looks real authentic.

Well it doesn't quite look as 3D from the sides (because it's flat of course), but it looks great to me.  I wasn't even expecting it to look this good honestly.  And now I can insert MAME credits with my feet while sitting on the barstool.  ;D
About my only complaint is that the LEDs are a little too bright (doesn't show in the pics).  Nothing a couple resistors won't fix though.  :cheers:

Once you've gone real coin-door it's hard to go back, there's nothing quite like the whole physical aspect of inserting a quarter. I think my coin door was maybe $15 on eBay or so, plus a little time with some paint and buying superbright LEDs etc, so it's not like you have to shell out to Happs. That said, the above pics of the install with the buttons over it is surprisingly nice. If you're lazy or don't have physical space for a real door it's not a bad option at all. A dropping quarter sound with delay would sweeten it even more.
