So here's a log of the work I completed on the weekend on my newly acquired Jurassic Park LE.

Wife wanted orange so went with a full kit of Titan replacement rubbers.

@Ads Nems Never unfortunately go around to installing his Shooter rod or hooking into the power to the topper. These are truly amazing pieces of kit. I wasn't going to keep the Tilt topper but after watching it light up I seriously cannot be bothered with the official release.

Video of the Amber Rod and Topper installed and powered.

Had to do some plastic adjustment as the ball was catching...

This area was a bit of a pain...

Raptor area was also a PITA required a lot of removal to get the rubbers and posts in this area.

Posts in these area's were simple enough.

The posts for a the T-REX area were a bit of a faff had to move plastic air ball protector, 'cliffy' protector and move the ramp above...

Also installed the pterodactyl mod while i was at it.

The rubbers near the pop bumper area's were also a sod I had to do a lot of juggling with plastics, metal posts and ramp adjustments to get all the rubbers off. Had my wife going 'just leave it'. I honestly couldn't I wanted the whole lot as one theme....


End result:

Check list:

PSU Fan replacement (fans have been ordered)
Install some simple signs near the T-REX fence.
 
Looking great in orange. Are you going to mod the helicopter? the stern flat plastic version is pretty bad....
Will think about it. Moneys flowing out due to the Garage conversion at the moment. Maybe once the dust has settled :D
 
Oh nice! Where from?
Ebay. I can't see any on there atm except for one as part of a £60 set. It's tricky to mod, have to drill and dremmel it to accept the flipper bush that's used to hold the blades with a small bearing on the top. Worth it though if you can find one and have the patience to mod it to suit.
 
Its no secret I never kept JP longer than a few weeks as I just didn’t get it and theme wise it’s a bit meh! for me.
That said everyone else rates it a GOAT and favourite of many here so I accept I’m weird!

So as this is a kind of modding thread can anyone help?
my question is what does the lockbar button do as I’m currently trying to design a lockdown bar plaque for it in the vein of my V2 shooter and coindoor plates.
