That's a great post and seems like a pretty easy mod!

Items sold. Mods please delete. Thanks!

I had the power supply on a dedicated ROTJ fail on me three times and I finally said "F-You" and sold it. Now, years later, I regret the decision because of advances in replacement parts kits. *sigh* Same could be said about a Tutankham I had. Another "I can't keep it running so it's outta...

Could someone explain why DoT doesn't work? Is it a coding/driver/emulation issue, or something else? I've some experience with basic Pi usage, I'm a newcomer to the FPGA thing, so I really don't know how they really differ.

I have a question about one of the pieces on the plans. The long wavy angled piece that goes from the control panel area up into the head of the cab... is that piece even used? None of the photos of real cabs I've found have that piece in place. Was it a prototype part or something? All the cabs...

Anyone know of a vendor who sells the correct "later" model art? I found one place, but the art is listed as having a matte finish, which I wrong I think?

Thanks for the pointer to the videos and to everyone else who chimed in!

That's exactly the reason I posted my request here! You can open the DXF file in photo editing software like photoshop for example (although illustrator would probably work better) but without knowing what scale to resize it at, it's anyone's guess. :) I love the classicarcadecabinets page, but...

Thanks, but those are the ones that only the side panels are full size and printable. :(

😆 Hopefully you can find them! I don't have room for a cockpit. ;)

Yes please!

Thanks! Much appreciated!

The arcade cabs site only has side panel patterns at full scale. Has anyone converted the other files to 1:1 scale printable patterns? Or, worst case scenario, does anyone know how much the files need to be upscaled to be correct size? Thanks in advance!

That's a standard "haircell" texture on the plastic. The reverse side is smooth. Never seen that slight bumpy texture on styrene or ABS made in the last 15 years. Interesting. The lack of sharpness in the panel overlay is either an issue with not enough heat or too thick of plastic being used...

Thanks for all the info everyone!! It's very helpful! If the Opto is bad, do we have Digikey style part number so it could be swapped out? Of course Digikey has like a $20 minimum order these days, so ordering the one from Mike's Arcade might be cheaper/easier in the long run, even if you do...
