So for the install, did the IL RGB fit right into the button, or does it go below the button? Is this as easy to setup as it looks? Did you find them to be bright enough?
What connectors will I need in order to connect these to the PacLed 64's?

This thread shows how I installed the LEDs in the buttons: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,113154.msg1201658.html#msg1201658
This post shows my buttons lit (plenty bright for me): http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,59359.msg1273650.html#msg1273650
The PACLEDs come with connector housings for the headers, but you have to find the pins (USB header style pins). Here is what I used: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,108719.msg1213429.html#msg1213429

I'm going to be putting together a North Coast Custom's 3 way -
9 Buttons per side (6, + 3 control) + 2 for flipper's X 2 sides = 22
3rd Control Panel = (6+6+6 control) + 2 for flipper's = 20
Total 42

Wait, a total of 6 flippers on 3 sides. :dizzy:
What are they thinking? Full screen tables (w/o backglass) from the short sides and WS/3:4 tables from the long side?
Seems like either 2 or 4 flippers (left, right, left upper, and right upper) on one side would be a better way to go.
Assuming the flipper buttons are for pinball instead of Chicken Shift, you might want to include a ball launch button, too.

Le Chuck:
I get having the 6/player on the long side but what vert games use 6 buttons? Unless you're dead set on having screen splitting as an option (and then why bother with side by side play) seems like you could ditch some unnecessary inputs from the vertical ends. I'd think three would be sufficient.
iserian:
Nice. looking back at your 'build' brings back memories OF MY 2072 Tournament side/side and play choice 10 side by side.
For the connector's - in your post you said that each pacled 64 should come with the 48 connector. How do you connect the wires from the RBG to the connector? (solder? or screw down like Ipac OR..?)

I agree, probably more buttons that will be needed/used in the vertical setup. Holes are already there.. so looking to fill them versus leaving a blank. I'm not certain that my kit will come with holes for the flipper's on the 3rd player side though.
