Hi. I've been looking for years for this stuff or at least some form of replacement. Anyone have any idea what they used, or if I can source a good replacement somewhere? I'm reworking a Galaxian cabinet now and I need it, along with my Gorf cabinet that is missing the right side.

I used crap poster frame channel that at least fits, but it looks terrible.

Thanks!

Do you know which particular edge trim fits monitor glass or marque plexi? I need to replace my mortal Kombat 2 pieces that hold the marque to the plexi. I have bought several random c channels on eBay but nothing fits the same as the originals. Thanks for any info
 
Measure the thickness of the glass and marquee. Most tend to be 3/16". Then get the backglass trim/channel that matches the correct thickness. You can also find this at marcospecialties.com.

Edit - I think you have a translight marquee and clear plexi? If so, and the plexi is 3/16", the added thickness of the translight should affect the fit.
 
I bought the U channel for my MH at outwater.com. Measure whatever it needs to go on and search for the profile you need.

Which one did you buy? Last time I looked I had it narrowed down to two offerings and gave up wondering
 
I seem to recall I just ordered a bunch of different ones. They are pretty cheap. The most expensive part was shipping, so best to get it all in one order.
