GaryMcT's 2-player generic control panel layout
bkenobi:
I used some long leaf spring micro switches (taken from an old broken joystick) and used some double sided tape to attach them to the coin door behind the coin reject button. It hasn't come off in over a year and works fine. There's no permanent mods to the coin door that way either.
GaryMcT:
I also saw mention somewhere of someone rigging a microswitch for this. If I can clean up the eject mechanism to the point where it isn't really sticky (it is now), I'll give that a try.
Thanks!

I rigged up a microswitch behind one of my rejects and used that for credits.
These pics suck, so you can't even tell what's going on in them, but what you're supposed to see is a microswitch mounted on a small bit of wood that is gorilla glued to the coin chute. Everything still functions as normal, except now when you press the player 2 reject, it engages the switch (and it can still reject a stuck coin).
GaryMcT:
OK, I stood at a machine here at work and found that you guys are right about the stick being too far away from the buttons. Will do another pass on it tonight and hopefully get the player start buttons in a more sane place in the process.
I may take some time to look into hooking a micro switch up to the coin eject too like you guys mentioned. Woo hoo! :)
GaryMcT:
Here's another version! Moved the buttons closer to the sticks. Rearranged the admin buttons. Put the player start buttons in the middle. Whadya think?
