I have a mortal kombat 2 midway cab and was wondering if 20 feet of t molding would be enough? Im not putting any on the back.. Thanks

Measure it up with a tape measure. Should only take a minute or two.

Off the top of my head, I would say that 20' is not close to enough due to the extra edges on that cab.

I am in the same boat, getting ready to buy some T-Molding for my Mortal Kombat II cabinet that I am redoing.  I measured all the edges including the top of the control panel and it comes close to 28 feet being conservative.  So you will probably need to order 30 feet.  That is what I am planning to get from T-Molding.com.

Unfortunately T-Molding.com sells in 20 foot increments I do believe...

Groovygamegear.com sells tmolding by the foot. I've gotten blue from there and it is identical to T-molding.com samples I had.

you need about 30 feet for 90's Midway 2player cabs slightly more for the 4 player CP it cant hurt to order 40 feets and keep some as a spare especially considering the cost
