Maybe it's just the angle of the picture, but it looks like once the plexi & bezel are in place, that area would be totally covered.

Like this:

Or am I just not seeing the problem area clearly?

well your cab has that little lip, and then it goes back in towards the coin door.  mine is different in that it doesnt go back in towards the coin door.  does that make sense?

well after looking at it a little more, i think i can just put down the cp and the bezel and be done with it.  i think you are right about the bezel and glass covering it up.

Is that a Pole Position or some other driving game cab?  It looks kinda like the steering wheel area
