Hi there!
One thing that I didn't realize about arcade kits from the 80's is that the marquees and bezels were cut/trimmed to fit an existing machine. When I received a mania challenge marquee off of ebay, it had been really trimmed - its dimensions turned out to be 20.75" x 7.75" instead of about 24" x 9" (I assume). Very few arcade cabinets are this small so I wonder what type of machine had these marquee dimensions!
Anyway, I'm looking for another marquee and hopefully matching bezel as well so I can start making my mania challenge cabinet. Preferably, I'm looking for the marquee and bezel to be "uncut" or just slightly trimmed. I'll likely have more luck finding one on this website as opposed to waiting for months on ebay.
Does anyone have what I'm looking for?
Later...

I have that marquee and the move stickers off of a Pac-Man conversion. I don't think it's been trimmend at all and can get you measurements if you like.
Here are the photo's of the move stickers (http://portals.chilitech.net/photos/jesse_torok/category1011.aspx). (I think I pulled these off for you but ya never responded. :) )
PM me if you are interested.

Bump!
A few weeks ago a Mat Mania bezel sold on ebay for $6.00 (plus $18.00 shipping and handling). Darn it I should have bid on it even though it wasn't a Mania Challenge bezel!
I'm having a hard time finding the bezel to match my mania challenge marquee. Anyone having any leads?
Thanks...
