Title: djurests mame - I need info about coin mechs?
Post by: djuret on October 20, 2008, 11:21:37 am

Hi!

I've finally decided to build my own MAME-cabinet.
I will probably order my parts from happcontrols.com.

I've read quite alot but have one question regarding this coin-mech.
http://www.happcontrols.com/coindoors/42303900.htm

Does it have a front? should i buy a coin-front and then install this coin-mech behind it?
If so, how do I know what fronts are compatible with that mech.

That's a raw coin mech/coin chute. You need a coin door to put it in.

Assuming I buy this coin-mech and a fitting coin-door.

Is this mech ready to be wired to a I-PAC?
Or do i need to install a coin-switch which I will wire to the I-PAC?
