Soooo, I bought this coin door off of ebay. I have no idea what kind it is and was wondering if anyone could help me out. I need to know, because it isn't a Happ, and I really want to find a different color for the push button, and a new price label (it currently says 100yen).
This is the door I have:

Here is a close-up of another door with similar reject buttons. If anyone knows where I can order this type of button from, I would greatly appreciate it.

You have a "Coin Controls" brand coin door. The only source of parts is now Happ Controls. They bought the remaining parts inventory. Happ has reproduced the reject buttons, but only in red color.

Well, if anyone has a blue reject button for a "coin controls" door, let me know, I will be willing to trade for a red one or buy the blue one or whatever. I just really want a blue one :cry:
-
Same here, but I'm looking for a pair of yellow ones!!

Those CC buttons (http://www.happcontrols.com/cc/42315700.htm) looks same as the ones on my Asahi Seiko (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=65124.msg653884;topicseen#msg653884), any chance they're interchangeable? Both my buttons are mismatched and one of them has this this horrid hole drilled right in the center of it.

You can interchange Asahi Seiko coin door parts on Coin Controls doors but only as complete assemblies. To put an Asahi Seiko reject button in a Coin Controls door, you're gonna have to replace the entry bezel, reject button, and entry trough halves at the same time (all must be Asahi Seiko parts to do this). The reason being that even though the reject buttons look the same, they aren't. The reject post sticking out of the button is in a slightly different position than on the Coin Controls and would bind.

That coin door with the three coin inserts probably came off an Ivan 'Iron Man' Stewart's super off-road racer, I have one, but I don't have the frame the door hinges to. I can't recall off hand what color my inserts are...

I was hoping to put CC parts on the Asahi, but I understand your point.
Which part is the entry bezel and entry trough?
-
The bezel is on the outside of the door and the trough is inside leading to the coin acceptor.
-
Do you think it would be possible that the happ parts are interchangeable also? Like replace the bezel and trough as well as the reject?
-
Happ's line of replacement Coin Controls parts are new old stock except for the reject buttons which are reproductions.
If you want to put genuine Happ coin door parts (intended for Happ's own doors) on a Coin Controls door then you're looking at a lot of carving up metal work. It's not worth it. It would be cheaper and simpler to just buy a brand new complete Happ Controls coin door.

Wrong it was from a MERCS machine that I stripped, was going to use it for MAME, but decided to go all dedicated.
