Looking for blank Defender control panels as a starting point for custom control layouts.

Thanks!
Gary

These come up for sale every now and then on ebay.

QuarterArcade has a Defender cocktail panel for sale.  I would keep checking back there as well.

When you say 'blank'... are you just simply looking for a piece of wood cut to fit?

Yes, which seems really really lazy and stupid come to think of it.  :)  If I have to cut the holes myself, may as well cut the piece of wood.

I wasn't sure... You may have wanted the wood + piece of plexi for overlay + hitches + tmolding slot + tmolding strip.

On second thought, maybe I wasn't on crack!!!!  :)  A completely build panel with the hitches, plexi, etc. would be nice, ie. only thing left is to cut holes for controls and put 'em in.  Yes, I am that lazy!!! :)
