The bulb in that was in the game was broken and on the bottom of the cab...

I have no idea how it was mounted. The speaker sits right in the way of where the bulb would go. Anyone have an ideas?
 
without opening mine up I'd say it looks correct but obviously if the speaker magnet is in the way of where the light needs to be it's incorrect. I know I've removed the light from mine with no issues or need to remove anything but the marquee. Maybe the bracket that holds the fixture is bent a bit or mounted backwards? Or maybe the speaker has been replaced with one that has a larger magnet than the original? I know for sure there are 6x9 speakers with smaller magnets so that might make the difference.
 
Yeah I wasn't sure if theres some short, single side mounting florescent light bulb out there that I dont know about.
 
Perhaps this is some quirk of it being a possible prototype.

The dirt on the wires and bolts is completely uniform. Doesn't look like anything has ever been messed with. In the cabinet, I only found one side of the former bulb with electrodes on it. Is there a short, one-sided bulb in existence? Can't find one online.
