It's not too hard.
What I did for mine is:
Gently yank the +5v, +12v and ground from the harness to the power board. Crimp together the +5v to a spade (U shaped). Do the same for Ground and +12v.
UNPLUG THE HARNESS FROM THE GAME :)
Connect the spades to the switcher in the right spots. Splice into the light fixture for AC power, run it to the switcher.
While the edge connector is off of the game board, test the harness for the correct voltages. Once you are sure you have ~+5v, give it a shot!
Turn everything off, plug in the PCB and fire it up!
Worked for me. Not sure if you have the schematic. Here is a link:
