I'm thinking about adding a coin door to my cab, currently I have my side buttons as the coin buttons, so firstly what's the best way to cut my cab, is this part from happs all i need? http://www.happcontrols.com/coindoors/40005500.htm and can i splice my current / pinball coin button or can i add yet another 5, and 6 ?


i don't have any "buttons" hooked up to my u360's can i add a coin door to that ? and how do i do it haha

well you could make up a template trace the inside of the door cut it out and get the sander out to make final adjustments for the web page it looks like it includes the coin mech and the bulds for the coin returns so you should be set probably going to need a coin box, if you are goin to use it to except  coins

mrclean:

Yeah it has the cutout right on the happ page , so i suppose i can "gulp" cut before getting it

I probably wouldn't do that just because your printer may print it out at a slight different scale

ivwshane:

Just get the dimensions, figure out where on the front panel you want it to go, measure carefully, then use something round (a glue bottle, I used plumbers tape) and draw the round corners.

Cut just a little outside the line and do a test fit (the design of the coin door will allow for small imperfections but try to keep them under 1/4 of an inch). You will then like need to make some small adjustments.

It's not as hard as you think, just be sure to measure twice (I used the dimensions off of the page you posted).
