Mods for CFTBL

[darren_ross]

Was just looking a various mods for cftbl. Has anyone on here actually got this mod? Looks like it would be a real pain to play with as it blocks half of PAID out of view. Playfield is quite cluttered as it is to be fair. Quite like the mod but if i have to shimmy myself round the side of the machine everytime i make the shot it would send me insane.

My favourite haha. By it now for £128 on ebay.... . Would rather use a slimer as a topper than this monstrosity
Infact give me slimer!

Theres a good snackbar mod on pinside.

This replaces the plastic which is commonly broken above the snackbar hole though doesn't it? While the plastic is in one peice it doesn't seem worth getting. Does look good though

Looks very nice I think..

Was just checking the thread out on pinside. Looks stunning! Doesn't look like v1 is available and v2 is still being produced

Purple/pink spot lights really brightens up the middle of the playfield! Might have alittle play around myself

Oh I really like that snack bar mod...
I put flashers into the pop bumpers as per my this post: http://www.pinballinfo.com/communit...eature-from-the-black-lagoon.2157/#post-19235
The last picture is actually a video that shows it.
I also have hot pink rubbers on the posts, black rubbers on yellow flippers.

I'm not a big mod fan, but if I was getting one, I'd be looking for something that enhances the pin, but also doesn't really look like a mod...that snack bar mod would definately be one I was up for, it looks great

Yeah, i saw that. Looks good. Where did you get the hot pink posts from? Need to change my black posts and the flipper rubbers. Don't know why they never put flashers in the pop bumpers up there. All the holes are ready for them, but i guess they're just stock parts for all ballys.

Maybe they were going to put lights in but they are really hard to get to if the bulbs blow as they are under the ramps. Some people do just light them but I wanted them to flash, easy to do and the parts list is in my post but the barrier strips link no longer exists so here is a new generic search.

@pinballmania recommended I used lower watt bulbs as they would last longer and they are still going strong. Again @pinballmania, http://www.pinballmania.co.uk/ supplied the hot pink posts, the flippers and other rubbers.
