So I picked a really clean Asteroids cocktail for way cheap. The cabinet is really nice and solid. It has the control panels with buttons and harness, the coin mech and the power supply. What I see missing is the monitor, main harness and the boardset. So, I was thinking of dropping in a spare 13" Vision Pro monitor and run Asteroids on my ArcadeSD board. Not exactly the crispness of a vector, but I can play Asteroids and would make the resto easy. But, I don't have any vector games and it would be nice to have a least one. How hard are the pieces I am missing to get? Does anyone reproduce the top glass? Just looking for some advice.

It is generally more expensive to piece meal an put back together an arcade machine..
 
Well, it doesn't look like I can use my Arcade SD for Asteroids cocktail mode, but it looks like Missile Command uses the same cocktail cabinet. I already have a monitor, just need the control panels and artwork. Let me know if you have some parts you are willing with.
