Can I modify the coin mech that comes with this door to take other coins?

Fitted with 25¢ mech and 14V bulbs as standard

now, I know that you aren't ordering directly from Happ are you... there are better deals to be had in the buy/sell/trade forum...

I order all of my stuff from divemaster127

Unfortunately I had to.  I live in South Africa, so I can't use PayPal.  I have to stick with online shops where I can buy with a credit card.  I ordered the rest of the stuff from Ultimarc and received it today, not even a week after I placed the order.  Now how's that for quick service!  ;-)
