My outrunners needs some standard socket 11 or 12 watt clear bulbs. Where do you guys go to get something like this? I'm only seeing 25 watt in this size which is too bright. Thanks
 
I'll check what mine has in it tonight, but I want to say they were just normal low wattage frosted bulbs.

Did all the parts work OK?
 
when i had outrunners, i put 15w bulbs from the hardware store.
gets expensive rebulbing that game!

hey Dan, just got the shaker motor in last night, and it works! also got the dash control panel in and it looks great. I'm currently working on the upper parts which includes the blue marquee you got me. I need a wells 25k7193 chassis for it so i'll have to find one of those or get mine capped. I'll take some pics for you at some point. Appreciate the parts, it's cleaning up nice. How the heck do you get to the monitor on this beast, i really don't want to come out of the front because i'd have to pull the dash apart again, althougth if i have to i have to. I had a heck of a time even seeing the chassis #'s. Thanks again, i'll check my hardware store tonight for the bulbs. Dave
 
Thanks, i'll see if ace harware has them, putting a new cord on the main light right now, hopefully it works. So far so good. Still curious about the monitor, how do you get to the chassis? I thought about cutting a access as the back panel above the door is glued. The monitor on the left looses its sharpness after a while but at least the one on the right looks perfect. I've used arcadecup before to recapp a nintendo chassis but usually if i'm patient i can buy a whole chassis recapped for less than his cap service. Thanks again Dan!
 
I'm glad to hear it's all coming together. I can't offer any advice on how to access the monitors, mine didn't have any monitors in it when I got it.
 
i just bought 5 of the 15 w soft white bulbs at home depot and they also had the long clear marquee style standard socket 15 wat bulbs (they were like 3 $ each tho so i opted for the soft white bulbs for my gorf)
